It will soon be ready to submit to the ROG Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2010  competition

Better clear a space in your trophy cupboard. 

A sure winner.

Good luck !  I'll have to pay a visit this year to see your image

Wasn't there some stupid megapixel size restriction for entrants so it could be displayed large scale ?
You needed an SBIG or similar, a DSLR couldn't produce the scale 

So much for amateurs

Fantastic, Mark!!!!

This year they say you must ensure:

1) your photo has been taken on a sufficiently high-resolution camera so your image could be displayed in an exhibition. As a guide we may reproduce it at 300dpi at A2 size
2) you have a high-resolution version of your photo available. If you cannot produce an image of sufficient resolution you may not be eligible for the competition shortlist.

They don't mention specific number of megapixels but I hope (!) a DSLR is fine ...
