Good job Kevin. Those planets are shrinking and fading now so you've done well to capture Saturn so nicely. With the days getting longer and nights shorter, it doesn't give you much time to shoot the planets at reasonable altitude. Mars is still quite high but is also small which means more magnification which equals larger f ratios so longer exposures or more gain/iso to achieve a useable image. Never mind, it's still giving you the opportunity to practice with your RGB filters and it looks like you're getting the hang of it very quickly.
