A good night for Saturn

Well after some pretty dodgy weather over the last couple of weeks, the Gods of Astronomy relented for a night and I was able to get in some sky time. After getting frustrated with trying to get a decent polar alignment and not being able to get a shot of the carina area I decided to try the first favourite. Popped of 3 quick avies of Saturn and initial on the spot processing looked favourable.

After editing (virt Dub) one of the avies and using reference frame for the first time (in the optimize section of Reg3), and using a variety of Registax process a couple of times on each avi I ended up with about a dozen images. I then stacked all of them together in Registax and a quick adjustment in PS. Nearly all the original BMPs looked ok but I'm very happy with the final. Comments on improving always welcome
