Jupiter, Saturn & Neptune - 8/10/2022

Hey All,

Seeing conditions wasn't the very best and I was tired so only managed 1 planet transit which was Saturn around 9:30pm. No GRS on Jupiter, but I did find Neptune for the very first time!! I have struggled to find Neptune on all my past attempts and almost lost my $h*T when I saw it on the screen

Saturn at 9:25pm - 9:45pm with fair seeing conditions.
