First Saturn for the season

Finally got everything working last night and managed to snap an hour's worth of Saturn between banks of clouds before it started raining

Here's my first quick process of what looked like one of the better sequences. The image is a stack of 200x0.5 sec subs taken with the LPI through a 5x powermate on my 10" f5 Newt. This is my first real attempt at planetary imaging with the LPI.

In the BMP image I think I can see three moons to the left of Saturn however these are not so clear in the JPG.

Stacked in registax, deconvolution and wavelets in PS.

Comments welcome.
