Another passable result thanks to the seeing. A few to come yet of course:thumbsup:

C11/DBK618

[U.K.Cowboy]

Mmmmm.....bit tasty John oh yes! Hex storm is really popping! Look forward to your other captures.

[Saturn%5]

Very nice John, Im sure the rest will be just as good.

cheers

Graeme.

Beautiful image John. Hope the good weather continues. We are having a late wet now, just pouring rain all day/night.:mad2: Hopefully it will heal up by the time your trip comes around.

[asimov]

Thanks guys.

You are correct Graeme, they are basically all the same quality which in a way, is sad lol. I'll maybe post a few more later, & maybe not..:shrug:

In the mean time, here's Titan. Did a run on this object @ 7.5 FPS & F35. False colour added.

Trip/dates confirmed Ralph. Expect a PM later & thanks:thumbsup:

[asimov]

Well ok. I can mentally hear ya'll yelling 'More, MORREEE!!' Damned pushy lot! Here, but only the first four captures ok??:rolleyes::P

[RickS]

Saturn a go-go :lol: Nice captures!

[jjjnettie]

:) BEautiful work as usual John. :)

[FranckiM06]

Wow, it is one more time a splendid image of Saturn. It is actually much better to be in Australia to imaging Saturn that in France because it is too low.
Congratulations for this great shot :thumbsup:
Franck

[John K]

Beautiful work!!!

[Larryp]

Great work as usual, John:thumbsup:

[Shiraz]

Really beautiful images Asi.

maybe you are going to need that bigger scope to do any better than this.?

regards Ray

[asimov]

Thanks guys & gal.

Ray, I have yet to receive the seeing I was getting back in March 2012 on a couple of occasions, so the C11 still has some tricks left up it's sleeve, but basically yes, I have 'run out of light' on Saturn. Right now I'm running a 35% full histo @ F30 & beyond making things very finicky to capture without having the camera settings tuned right in perfectly, collimation perfect, getting the scope to ambient sorted.

You're right though, I need to unleash the 14". I've been steadily ironing bugs out of the system & we are getting close to test phase two. Skeletal newts - collimation woes.

[astronobob]

Dig the four course meal combo John, very tasty, the 14" should produce a Banquet for all IIS'ers with your talent behind the Aprin :cool2:
Top Show ,,

[asimov]

Hey cheers Bob!:thumbsup:

[Solar]

Top shelf yet again mate. :thumbsup:
The 14" will give it a nudge I bet.

[bird]

Lovely images Asi

cheers, Bird

[leon]

Wow that is so good, perfect capture.

Leon

[John Hothersall]

Grand capture, very smooth - nothing can match a still Saturn on the screen waiting for your attention. Thats a solid TITAN for your records.

John.

[asimov]

Thanks guys.

Thinking that the '4 ringed Saturn circus' image sucks a bit. Here's another version.

[Solar]

Nice John.
Still raining!!!!

[prokyon]

Great work John! You have one inch more than I but my results are miles away from yours. But I keep on learning....

[asimov]

Hi Ralph. Yeah it's about to squirt down here soon I think too. Missed out on a 9/10 seeing last night which would have left these images in this thread for DEAD! Yes, it clouded out right on cue & boy was I slightly annoyed..

Thanks fellow metal-head! Nice scope that 10" F 6.3!

[Solar]

Im pasted it now John, I have not used my SBIG2000 for several years because of the conditions up here. I wish someone would start an airline in Bundy.

[asimov]

Here's a resample of one lot of data. I don't reckon the seeing was quite there but oh well.

[gavcol]

Excellent work John. :thumbsup:

Gav

[Quark]

Some rather tasty morsels there Asi, lovin the work with the DBK.

Cheers
Trevor

[asimov]

Thanks Gav, Trevor. An image I forgot to post.

[Quark]

A lovely image there Asi, how could you forget such a beauty.

Cheers
Trevor

[asimov]

Yeah I know Trevor...:shrug: Lost, but now found;):D
