Well that turned out about as good as you'll ever get with an 8 inch scope. Fantastic result Dave, good colour and nicely processed. It certainly looked as though you had good seeing conditions - some real lucky imaging for you! Well done for getting out there and taking advantage of it. I'm very envious of your result. :thumbsup:

Very nice indeed. We agree with all that Michael has said and definitely share his envy of your conditions. Just cloud and rain here.

Cheers everyone. Just glad to get a clear sky and some decent seeing for a change. It was a good night for it.

I'll start working on an animated gif soon from about 15 or so videos.
