     Not brilliant like some of you imagers, but I couldn`t resist ........  Taken with the Sony A380 on 19/03/2011. f5.6 2000 sec ISO 400.

    Macs image was brilliant, especially the sharpened one.

Your images should inspire anyone with simple kit, Doug. Ever thought of taking a number of shots and stacking them?

     I have downloaded Registax from a Sky at Night disk, but have not the slightest idea of how to use it correctly. I need a bit of tuition methinks, so perhaps when I am at Kelling, I will have to pick somebody`s brains and get ???????? to show me how to stack images.
