I recall the Hubble series centred about the 1995 ring plane crossing. Who would have thought that 15 years later (ok, 10-20) an amateur could compose a series that stands very well alongside that one. Wow!

What a wonderful montage!
I think we perhaps shouldn't think of Damien as an amateur anymore. More the Master, than the student: -
