Jack of all trades, master of none :D

Had a big day yesterday imaging wise, I started off with a white light session but the resulting image wasn't the best so in a huff I cracked out the Ha scope to catch that nice big prom that was on show.
I faffed about with the 88mm stage1 PST mod for a while and caught a few images before stripping it back to the original PST for a full disc shot.

So after a the days solar efforts in the evening I thought I'd try for the Moon and Jupiter, the sky was still blueish which you can kind of tell with the lunar pic. Still without a doubt it is my best lunar shot using a CCD so I'm very happy with that.
The seeing was excellent and I kind of expected more from the planets but I guess the operator is more to blame.

Once I had waited it out I then turned to Mars and later Saturn to round the day off, it's my first Saturn for a couple of years and the first shot where the division is easily defined so again I'm happy with that.

So all pics taken using a DMK41 using either a 6" f/8 reflector, Vanilla PST or 88mm stage1 mod. There was a Tal x3 barlow used at times too.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
