Saturn - 26th Oct 2005

[RB]

This was all I could squeeze out of a group of avi's caputured the other morning. :shrug:

Saturn was low in the east and the seeing was not favourable.
I combined 3 sub frames from 3 short avi's and stacked them to get this final image using Registax.
Processed in PS and Neat-Image.
Not much detail and noisy but looking forward to better things soon.

Cheers


:D

[davidpretorius]

nice one, any idea of your magnification??

[janoskiss]

That's pretty good Andrew! It's still early days. :thumbsup:

[ving]

its a good start! :D

[atalas]

Yeah Andrew when Its down low you aint going to get a sharp shot but you still got plenty of detail ....I like It ! I bet you can't wait for opposition mate .

[asimov]

Thats darn good Andrew...Splendid mate, splendid!

[rumples riot]

No bad given its current position in the sky and the seeing was not so hot.

[h0ughy]

great effort there. Gee where are these planetary imagers coming from? The standards have certainly been set Andrew!

[Robby]

Nice image.
The rings are certainly closing up....
Here's a crap "my first astro pic" of Saturn on November 2002. But is serve to show how rings were much more open then!
Cheers

Cheers guys,

I can't wait till Ringo is better placed, there will be some great images coming through from everyone soon. :party:

Robby that's still a nice image dude.

:jump2:

:doh: :eek:

One bad habit I have is that I am sometimes in a hurry and don't note what my setup is. I'm not sure which powermate/s I used (I was stacking them at one stage) and I remember I also used a diagonal so not sure.
I'll work it out and let you know.

Cheers my dudemate
