Hi All,

Well finally a night with the telescope, went back to the good old LX90 in Alt/az mode for some much needed planet capture. The clouds did roll in but i got some gaps within which i got some half decent captures done.
I dont have any filters or filter wheel so this are just b/w.

Edit: As requested larger jpeg versions
1st image with 5x barlow 2nd image with 3x barlow

Regards
Fahim

No storm here in Sydney, we have clear weather fore casted for the week. I think the storm is further north in QLD. Seeing was about 2-3.

Looks like it's got nice detail Fahim, just save it into a larger jpg format because it's only a thumbnail and won't open into a larger image.

Thanks RB Update original post. Also reduced the wavelets on the 5x looks less noisy now.
