M22 mosaic with ToUCam

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum but have been imaging with a LX modded ToUCam since 2003.

I had built a permanent observatory in 2004 but have since moved house and have now just completed the new observatory a few weeks ago. So being 'back in business' with the imaging promted me to join here, and it certainly looks like a great place!

The attached image is my 'first light' shot from the new obs. It's a mosaic of 9 frames of 50x4s each. I think it turned out rather good for a ToUCam.
I'm saving up for a better camera however - it would be great to get such a FOV with one shot some day!

Thanks all I'm looking to do some other mosaics soon. Unfortunately it's just such a hassle with 9 individual stacked and processed images, but definitely worth it.
