Come on man, give some details. How many subs? What were the sub exposure times? Total exposure time? What did you use to stack and process the image?
BTW - Congrats

Did you get that in the "For Sale" forum?
How did you do that?
Wait, I know I had "that talk" with my Dad many years ago, where are my notes?

Wow Andrew, Congratulations What a real cutie. Babies are truly miracles. You will enjoy putting the new 40D to good use. My munchkin is by far my most photographed subject.

Congrats, and great picture! Did it get cloudy when you brought it home? 
I've got two little rugrats - it's challenging, yet very rewarding - have fun!

What a nice New Years gift! Congratulations. Astronomy is good practice for babies. Late nights, lots of screaming and dippers... Well maybe not the dippers.
