Saturn and Arzachel - am 25/02

Seeing was above average near dawn, with some fine detail present and moderate amplitude (but rapidly varying) larger scale wobbles. Tried a few sequences with longer fls, but went back to ~ 4m - seems to be about the best compromise for Saturn with this scope under typical conditions. And the moon was impossible to ignore, so took some images of that as well. Thanks for looking.
