Trevor, I love it - Sexy Saturn!
Thanks Nettie. I must admit I was pleasantly surprised to see the detail that I achieved with the little QHY5. I've since played around with the number of frames I used to stack, dropping from 400 to 250, and managed to squeeze a tiny bit more resolution out of the image but you really have to look hard. I liked the fact that I managed to get the storm.
Darren, one son was impressed, however the younger informed me, almost pleading, that he really wasn't into astronomy!! I'm glad you liked it.
Terry, it was only on a whim that I tried! Thanks for your kind comments.
Ken, fortunately my wife's a physio so both my shoulders have been treated but trust me when I say my back is still red raw!! It was one of those nights where everything seemed to work. Tracking was spot on, and I pretty much nailed the focus for the avi that produced this image. The message I've taken from this is to keep at it, one day it will all come together!!
Cheers,
Mario
