With a rare (at the moment) break in the clouds I was also able to bag Uranus last night. I was surprised at how easy it was to find - compared to Neptune back in August. I was able to see it as suspiciously non-stellar at 50x and clearly a disk as the seeing steadied at 92x. The colour was obviously off-white, more towards the green than blue I felt.
I attempted to go to 171x but the seeing would not help me out.

That makes all of the plants visual for me now

Cheers.

Darren.
