Now that is nice! I was out there this morning too, but my seeing saw me not even bothering to fire one round off.

Well done Tom.

Tom I reckon you should put together a paper on DSLR planetary imaging. You certainly set a benchmark with all these great pics.
Cheers Derek

Thanks very much for the comments everyone :) Derek I am thinking about putting together a primer for DSLRs and Dobsonians - two if the pieces of equipment that aren't generally associated with planetary imaging.
