Paul also got a cracking Lunar mosaic, http://www.eastmidla...4-91-moon-7612/.

I would like to thank glider also.

I don't need any more encouragement to get out there when I can but things like this do 'stoke the fire' :)

I'm also very happy to be among like-minded souls and I know we, the class of 2012, will continue to learn and improve [with the help of the 'old timers' ;)]

Thanks to all for the images posted. They are great to see.

Regards.

EDIT: Please excuse my manners - thanks also to Ivo for his generosity.

Nice one Paul.

Big thanks for the M52 and bubble pic, I went after this last night and could not have found it without using your image.

Congratulations Paul, superb images, although to be honest, I like you Moon mosaic.

An excellent set of images from other darksider's, which always amaze me with your patience, both in the imaging and then the processing.

Those images are beautiful, thank you for sharing them. I have just got to learn how to do it for myself now.
