Just thought I would pass this along for any who are doing
astrophotography with their O-GPS1. If you would like to have the
objects in your image identified you can do this by joining the
Astrometry Group on Flickr. Submit your image to that group and it
will be analyzed and then a comment will be posted on your photograph
like this one:

(not my image - used for demo purposes).

Aside: That is not a bad image, considering it was taken with a 300mm
f5.6 lens. (It is a stack of 15 separate shorter exposures). The
object NGC 3528 in that image has an apparent magnitude of 14.8. To
know that objects THAT FAINT are within reach of such modest equipment
is very encouraging.
