Sensor Dust

For a few weeks now I have been having my first issues with the dreaded "sensor dust". Its not a fun issue to have. absolutely every image taken has nasty dots all over it. depending on the scene and aperture the spots range from unnoticeable to extremely annoying and degrading to your photo. This image is a screen shot of one of my photos when with all the spot removal selections on it. as you can see it can be a bit of a time consuming issue. next comes cleaning, something I feel will be very nerve racking, one small mistake and the camera becomes useless.

afer posting this a realizing that it may not be the most clear example of the effects of sensor dust, after all it you cant see any. this second photo is an out of focus shot of plain blue sky. this time i did not remove any of the spots, although i did all i could in "camera raw" to enhance them. well how aobut i put the original up to so everyone can see the effect of dust in its natural state.  they are a thousand PX wide for closer inspection(you may click on the photos for larger versions).
