One from this morning. Seeing was a bit touch & go for the image scale but I got a few anyway.

8" SCT/900nc webcam.

you cheeky bugga, what you do with a c8 and average seeing is nothing short of amazing!

[iceman]

Excellent image, John! Another beauty!

[asimov]

Thanks.

Careful there mate, the bar is a wee bit high.

What I am trying to say is, Awesome shooting for a 30yr old scope.

[RB]

Wow John, awesome shot mate......:eyepop:

[matt]

Nice one John:thumbsup:

You're producing some great images from that C8.

Nice scope, Lester:)

[davidpretorius]

[gbeal]

Nice shot Asi, maybe 12 months ago anyone would have been happy with that, well done.

[asimov]

So, I'm not sure how to take that comment Gary ? Are you saying that because it's 12 months on everyone is not happy with it? lol.

Lester, someone could have a C14 & the latest camera but if one doesn't have the required knowledge...

Great image Asimov, I'd be very pleased with a shot like that. great colours and banding throughout and the rings look fantastic.

Cheers

Wow Wow Wonderful
30 years old C8, what a marvelous shot. I think credit must go to the man behind the Scope. Great work Asi.

It would almost seem that you were sitting next to Bird and Iceman.

I was sitting next to Iceman & Bird in spirit only Wolfie:D Physically I was a couple of thousand K's away.

Heres a quick resample of another AVI from the same night. A bit grainy but I kind of expected this to happen:whistle:
