[Sedna]

Hi guys,

A week ago I took some pictures of different objects.The conditions were good all the time.But this weekend the winter is coming and there are no chances to observe the sky.:sadeyes:

Anyway, here is an image of the half Venus.

My first Saturn.The flat position of the rings is very nice.

Used equipment: 200/1200 Dobsonian; ToUcam Pro II + IR-Pass screen and a 3x barlow lens; processed in RegiStax and Photoshop.

Exception: For the moon pictures I used a 2x barlow lens
