Yes, the moons take a long exposure. Uranus itself was very burned out. Miranda is in there in close between Umbriel and Ariel, but it is glared out by over exposure of Uranus.

Kevin and Laurie, That's what I've been trying to capture. I collimated just before imaging, and I was careful to only sharpen wavelet layers 1 and 2, keeping the other layers on de-noise. So I think the middle dark band may be real. It is in the expected orientation. On past experience, the polar darkening is probably an artifact. But it looks nice.
