Thanks Ivan, it certainly was a change to see some quite fine detail within the EZ and BA in the raw data from the live feed.

Thanks Michael, I always monitor the seeing predictions and if there had been good seeing over the last week then I would have been imaging the planets and not Comet Lovejoy, the quality of the seeing is far less important for deep sky work. That said I did enjoy refamiliarizing myself with my 450D.

All the best for 2012.

Thanks Lester, certainly looking forward to a big year with Saturn in 2012.

Thanks Ray, your data from the same night is also most impressive, hope this is a trend that will continue for us. Have just come in from my observatory and conditions tonight have been very ordinary, I plan on getting up early tomorrow morning though and having a crack at Saturn.

Thanks Matt, my first data set tonight was fair but it all went downhill quite rapidly after that. Hoping for better luck in the morning with Saturn.
