Hi All,

Imaged Saturn last night in variable seeing. I rated it 5 to 6/10 but there was more of it at 5 than 6. The jetstream has been a problem for a couple of weeks now and this data was also effected by it. Reckon the alt at 64 degrees was the only saving grace. A pretty ordinary result but for what its worth here it is.

Thanks for looking.
Regards
Trevor

very nice work for a jetstream image Trevor. Been hard yakka lately, when the sky is clear, but the fine detail is missing. new cameras and software help though. regards Ray

Thanks Ray, Rob & Troy.

Have just come up from my observatory after capturing Saturn again, in similar conditions to May 13th, have attached 1 RGB & 1 807nm IR data set from May 14th.

For 5-6/10 conditions, that is amazing.

Thanks very much Steve.



Thanks very much Freddy, reckon the saving graces for this data was the alt and the amazing job that Emil's AS 2 did with it.
