Hi All,

I know its a bit tragic, but as I was fiddling around playing with LE shots of M42 I noticed Saturn had risen. Seeing was messy and it was low over the neighbours house so heat was causing havoc. I really shouldnt have bothered with all that but the temptation was there so I did anyway.

Before the clouds closed in I shot a few AVI's each of 30 secs, here is the one using the 3 x ED barlow, too much gain seems to have bled the planet into the background or at least caused the stacking some issues. Couldnt seem to iron it out. Oh well, maybe next time.

Capture time: 30 secs
Frames Stacked:158
FPS: 15 fps
Scope: 5 inch reflector
Stacked in Registax, levels, wavelets and sharpening done in GIMP

Thanks for looking, at least looks like Saturn, but I am still not happy, couldnt wait to the zenith as the clouds forced me inside.

Cheers

Chris
