So I have Erwin to thank for much of my work with his fantastic, inspiring images, they are among the best ever taken with a digital SLR and rival some taken with much more expensive astro , cooled CCD imagers. We can only imagine the great images he would have taken just in the next few years. We must treasure the great images he has taken, and I expect that they will continue to inspire up and coming astrophotographers in the way they have inspired me.
Thanks Erwin

Well said
You have captured my thoughts and feelings as well.
My emotions have not let me be together enough to post to this thread until now.
Although I never met Erwin, I feel like I have lost a close friend.
