many thanks Seanie,
I'll make great use of the camera, I had considered for a while now upgrading the toucam, but never got around to it, so it'll be very interesting to see what this camera can do.
Many thanks to all who voted for my image. :)
and many thanks to Ktec telescopes for donating the camera for the competition.

but what a way to go. :)

Don't thank me Dave, I only run the competition! The public voted, and it was in your (very worthy) favour. :)
