Nice shot, I glad to see that you are still active! - Jim Aldrich

Thanks Jim. Nice to be back in the game - been 3 months since I last imaged - Pat

That is some fine detail, Patrick. I will be looking to maybe get one of these QHY cameras next year. Quality seems outstanding.

Thank you Mario. I use cooled cameras during the summer months and DSLR pretty much the rest of the year. So far, so good with the QHY10. - Pat
