Thanks for posting these Brian. It's important to encourage people to try it for themselves, and pictures like this helps.
We see some truly stunning images here from IIS members, and we see the sophisticated and expensive equipment they use to achieve their results. The equipment used often puts it outside many peoples budgets (time as well as money)
Ur photo's are encouraging proof that amateurs can get satisfying results with the basics. Certainly good enough to make there own attempts worthwhile, and give them a whole new reason to get the telescope out. And it must be satisfying to have photos from your hobby to show friends and workmates.
I'd like to see people posting some of their solar system pictures taken with standard viewing equipment+camera just for this reason.
