Impressive...
I remember reading a while ago that in the early days of General Relativity, People assumed that we could never prove or disprove the idea of gravitational lensing, then the HST came along, and imaged a gravitationally lensed galaxy cluster... People then said "you could not hope to use gravitational lenses from earth based telescopes" I believe Keck I was the first to prove otherwise, and now here you are, an amateur astronomer with a 10" Newtonian and a webcam imaging gravitationally lensed objects from your backyard..
Awesome.
