Hi all,

Went to visit the outlaws near Caboolture over the break and took the imaging gear. Haven't done a lot of planetry lately but the weather was supposed to be good, so...

Sorry for the delay in reply Larry. I all honesty, there are much better images of Saturn on this forum than mine. In any case I caprured approximately 300 frames using a TouCam webcamera through a 4 X Televue Powermate, Celestron 9.25 Schmidt-Cassegrain. Stacked with Registax 5 and final processing in Photoshop CS5.

Thanks for asking.

Tony

There might be better images out there but they were not 300 frames with a TouCam. Well done.:eyepop:

Oops, that should read "captured 3000 frames"... but I think it only used 1500 of them.:ashamed:
