Stunning images yet again Dave!
A young friend was asking me 2 days ago if I got a scope out to photograph Saturn and mentioned he had a look and could only see a tiny dot. He has a 127mm Celestron reflector with some very expensive Tele Vue eyepieces his mother got him (the whole set-up for his 21st) and a Meade Barlow I've loaned him long term. I asked if he tried the Barlow with his big Tele Vue but I'm suspecting maybe he's been looking at one of the moons, not Saturn itself. I've seen Saturn through a 70mm refractor and the rings were clearly visible. I guess I've also taken small images through my 152mm refractor with a DSLR but now I have a Powermate (I haven't tried yet).
