Keep up the good work David, I love your dedication and perserverance to consistantly produce excellent shots from your big scope.
Thanks mate. Yeah you helped me with a Mars shot a while back using this same technique. I find my planetary seeing conditions are normally quite bad so IR is a wonderful way to still capture some fine detail. In theory, the rgb image should be giving the same level of detail if the seeing was good.
