a pair of Saturn's fresh picked this morning..

Hi All, another couple of shots of Saturn, perhaps a slight step down from my first shots, seeing was mediocre for the pre-dawn hour, the dew was thick and the mozzies ferocious!

Both images were LR deconvoluted in Astra Image 2. The earlier image was at exposures of 1/10th second and low gain and the second with 1/20th sec and gain cranked up. SOme wierd ring colour in the first... not sure why - maybe got colour channels crossed in the LR process

Think I've got collimation pretty close - now if I can get seeing and dew to co-operate (excuses, excuses) I might be dangerous

cheers,
