Saturn 10.4.11 - vgood seeing

SPX350 F34.2 with 5xPowermate, PGRFlea3, Astrodon filters.

1207hrs
1333hrs UT.

After previous night Tom said seeing was good in Bris although I did not get it so was ready this time and stars were twinkly but not too bad. By 10pm seeing was 8/10 but fell away to 7/10 quickly after so got one good set with the storm head. Relatively new to planetary imaging my colour processing is a bit strong so tried to get a more natural colour this time and not too smooth. Tests showed a little gamma-1200 was best for detail in red channel.

Thanks, John.
