How does it compare to my amateur attempts with a 12" Newton https://www.flickr.com/photos/joelkuiper/42502865635/ :p ?

All kidding aside, do you think there is some scientific value in the efforts of hobby astronomers and astrophotographers around the world?

I gotta say I'm quite jealous of your dark skies and beautiful photography.

Also, how are you overcoming flexure and mirror flop with your setup!? I have troubles keeping a 6" stable for a minute with a reasonable mount. Do you have more info on your setup anywhere?
