That is unbelievable resolution... was that F30 or F50 on the LX? Shame it couldn't all fit in. I imaged this myself about a month ago but no where near the level of detail you captured... I've reattached mine below to compare.. You are getting some great images with the LX (ToUcam...?)

Cheers,  John.

Hi John,

That was at F30, it did not fit well on the chip at F30.  The images was with the LX and ToUCam from Saturday morning about 2am.
