Planets 19th April

[von Tom]

I've posted Jupiter and Saturn from this date in earlier threads, but here's a compilation of all planets I managed to image on the 19th (the morning was clouded out for Mercury unfortunately). Planets are at their relative apparent sizes.

Thanks for looking :)

Mate, looks good. If you dont mind tell us a little bout your equipment and how you took the images.

Hi Steve. The images were taken with a Canon EOS 600D in movie crop mode, a 5x Powermate, 12" SkyWatcher Goto Dobsonian, stacked in Registax. Mars was stacked in AutoStakkert and an additional 2x Barlow was used for both it and Saturn. Sharpening done variously in Registax, Astra Image and PS. Images then resized for display.

Cheers,

Tom
