Matt. I personally would not use anything that blows air onto your sensor, unless it has an attachment for drying the air., which isn't really feasible. I sat down and had a good think about this problem. I didn't want to use sticky dabs or fluid, leave that to the experts. What I came up with was an old sable blower brush removed from the bulb,
then I attached it to a vacuum cleaner. when ever I need to clean my sensor it only takes a few stokes and the sensor is as clean as a whistle. I doesn't blow the dust around hoping that it drops out, it actually sucks the dust out. I did put a post on here about it, but I think most people thought I was mad. Works a treat though.
 
Still, glad to see the practice is paying off - that's the second set of pics from you from somewhere else than Oulton!! (and your horizon is squint in the 3rd one;))

Each to their own - I use a rocket blower and its fine - never had a problem with it. Doesn't give perfect results, but it gets the worst of the crap out every now and then when its needed.
