Mike,
Awesome shot!
By my calcs, a 5x powermate on an f/4.3 18" scope will yield 0.1 arc-sec per pixel on a Toucam (5.6u pixel size)
That's high resolution, the image clearly was not limited by pixel size!
Way to go,

Len

NGC 2903

Larry;
Very nice shot!! Guiding looks excellent, stars very round. I like your processing as well. The dust lanes are quite well defined, detail nearly to the core. There are a couple dust donuts that a flat would take care of.

Mike - yet another superb image! I like the shots of lesser known features like this one.
Looks like the Infinity 2-2 is working well for you.

You are completely on your game with these latest images. I rate this to be the best lunar shot I have seen.

Wow.

Hi Jon;
That's a great shot, esp with a non DSLR camera.
Interesting how the feet are not gripping the branch with all toes - I assume that two front toes per foot are holding him there.
