I thought I'd give Saturn another try with the LPI last night however the seeing was pretty poor. I've done some sharpening in PS and managed to nab three moons in this frame. Can't seem to get the colour balance right though?

Hi Peter, nice job.
Adjusting the black point with levels would darken the background and give a bit more contrast.

Not many people imaging with the LPI anymore. Nice work.

I must've missed this one when you first posted it. Well done on the moons. I have no idea what an LPI is.

Cheers Troy - its the Meade Lunar and Planetary Imager - bit like a webcam but works with Envisage and can do longer subs.

Peter good effort, now if you go into curves in say Photoshop, you can select each colour and reduce or increase the amount of colour. I would suggest that green should be reduced a little and red increase. This is a pretty good image from the LPI too.

Thanks for the advise Paul. I'll give that a try.
