I hope I can get images as detailed as that with my 10" Meade. Only prolem for me is my suburban sky is light polluted. But what a great image though. Well I am very impressed.

Axel participated in the competition and was drawn as the winner. The "drawing" of the winner is done by a small script completely at random. If you must know: it uses the PHP function "rand" - see http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.rand.php for details. We are very grateful that Axel took the time to send us some of the images he captured with his prize. We always ask our winners to send us images and he took us up on our offer. What can I say?

And you want us to believe this is "coincidental"? “the winner of the Astronomy Cameras Competition in March [..] is currently testing the professional version of his application with The Imaging Source astronomy cameras.”
