Sirius double star..

I know that sirius is a double star and I have tried to split it a number of times with my 4.5" reflector, with no luck every time.
Toninght I decided to take out my trusty digital camera (fujifilm S5500, 4mp) and pointed it at sirius and took a picture. I couldn't see anything after I took the pic and then decided to zoom in on it, and sure enough there are 2 stars next to each other, one is a little smaller then the other.
I will post a pic as soon as I figure out how.
