my early images

[little col]

thought i would post some of my early images from earlier in the year as the weather is bad here in manchester and i wanted to make a contribution rather than asking millions of questions all the time

A great start Col they are good looking images, Saturn is very crisp and clear. Are you applying dark frames to your images that will help to knock out the noise in the images.

Cheers

thanks for your comments , never even got round to dark frames yet but i must start doing them to break into the habit ,just waiting for this weather to clear :)

Keep at it, and let us see more of your work! :thumbsup:
