I was out trying at about the same time, but the seeing was unusable from suburban Adelaide.

Ivan try to get away from the heat plume of the city if you can. Seeing will generally be better anywhere away from the city. Rare nights it will be good, but this time of year during the transition of summer to winter makes it near impossible.

Yeah draggin my heals bud, trouble is that I have diversified so much with all aspects of astro imaging there never seems enough time to do everything as thoroughly as I want. Part of the sacrifice though.
Funny how 5 or 6 years ago we would all be stoked with the CD nearly all the way around. Now if we don't have the Enke either a trace of it or all of it we consider the image a little lesser in our own minds. Such are the advances that have been made. Both in hardware and processing abilities. I will try for another image of Saturn to better my last years award winner. Seeing will be the deciding factor though.
