Nice work Adam, whats the benifit of all that effort compared to just using a regular high quality camera tho ??? or was it just for the hell of it ?
Hope that helps clear things up!

The webcam has a much smaller field of view at 640x480 compared to my 10MP DSLR. The main advantage is that it helps overcome 'poor seeing' which is the turbulance caused by the atmosphere - we have to look through the entire atmosphere to see the Moon. Every single piece of the mosaic is actually an average of 300 images (the webcam AVI just takes a whole lot of images over a short space of time and combines then into an AVI video file). Then the 300 images are combined together in such a way to reduce blurring due to the atmosphere - this produces one good image, and forms part of the mosaic. So technically this mosiac is combined from 42 x 300 image = a lot of images.
Hope that helps clear things up!
