Thanks fellas!
Charles, I've seen your recent DSO images. You've certainly got no reason to be jealous!

Each is a master in his own domain. Both of you are masters and I'm the lucky one, because I get to look a them!!!

I've noticed a few guys popping up using camcorders for planetary shots... if you do give it a try, and you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

That first posted picture of Jupiter is very representative of the views I have been obtaining lately from my location. Nice color balance.
