Hi guys,
Got up at 4:30am this morning to see Saturn blazing away at 66 degrees and captured my first image of this apparition and my first go at using WinJupos to process.
A series of L(IR685)RGB 90 second combos which potentially shows some small spots on the globe, some shaping in the Hexagonal as well as a tiny hint of Encke's gap under ok seeing conditions which was never really perfect.
Good to see Saturn again, and as always a striking object particularly with the shadow effect on the globe before opposition.
Not 100% happy with the colour balance, but this will improve as I capture more vid's during this apparition and some way to go towards my best shot from last year:
