Saturn 2nd April good seeing
SPX350 F36.1, PGR Flea3, Baader RGB Astronomik 742nm.
Seeing looked promising at 45 degrees alt (fair) and as Saturn rose it got very good 8/10 for red but cloud came during blue and IR. I used 5min captures for each channel with WinJupos and with the final red the detail leapt out with storms showing. Hexagon pole is also showing well. It is amazing how good seeing brings up colourful banding.
Seeing looked promising over past couple of weeks here in Cleveland, Asi had avg seeing 300km north but here it was very pleasing just before the cloud came. Don't know if derotating avi would give better detail - will have to look into it.
R RGB 1354hrs
Red channel 1344hrs
IR channel 1324hrs
RGB GIF 3 sets 30mins apart
Regards, John.
