Saturn from Melbourne this morning

Had my first go at Saturn this morning. Tough object.

In addition to the low altitude, average seeing, and my neighbours tin roof I also had a 2 degree differential between my mirror and ambient.

Taken with an NGT12.5" w/OMI Torus Optics, 5 x Powermate and SPC900 webcam. 200 of the best frames split in RGB and processed using Astra Image, Photoshop and Noiseworks. Reduce to 80% of the original. The Red component is also attached which was the best of the 3 components.
