Saturn from 12/2, good seeing

Last night was the best night of seeing so far this year from my place - finally I've got a decent Saturn image from it.

My goal on saturn this year was to get the cassini division all the way around, and if you squint just right it's there in this image :-)

Image composed of multiple imaging runs from 1am to 2am local time on the morning of 12th Feb, approx 8000 frames per channel.

Tethys is shown where it was located at the start of these imaging runs, at about 1.10am.

edit: replaced original image with improved version

regards, Bird
