First decent Saturn

First clear night for weeks to have another go with saturn. Last time was a bit underexposed so waited 7 weeks for another shot at it. Attached a better one from this morning. Tethy's shadow should be in transit but I don't think its big enough to be seen.

Nicely done Vincent - I tried with all my might to setup the scope last night but I was too tired so I went to bed instead.

Great image.

Would be even better with some adjustments of the blue channel using levels. Just set the black point a bit higher.

Thanks Mike. Hm... Yeah it's a bit too blue and there is a ghost image too. Didn't see it(sleepy eyes!) this am. Wonder how can I get rid of it? Will run it through Registax again.
