Oh they are "all" so dear....

Hmmmm?......very difficult....? Narrowed it down to three (or 4)

Always been partial to this image due to the high resolution and detail with just 6" of aperture and a mere 1140mm FL, the seeing was good that night (I wasn't in Newcastle then )

This for its "Pow" factor (most viewed image at my web site with nearly 4000 hits since July last year):

This because when I did it from my control room without touching the scope I felt like I had my very own Hubble Space Telescope:

And lastly this is rather dear to my heart because it was my very first CCD image and taken after a more than 13 year abscence from astrophotography (so much had changed in astrophotography!!!):

Gets a lot of hits that image (nearly 1400 since May last year)
