My first ever Saturn

Dodged rain and clouds last night to see if I could image Saturn for the first time with my 10" SCT and ASI120MM camera using a 2x barlow. Used SharpCap to capture and Autostakkert for processing. No other fiddling.
I was quite pleased with the end result and then realised that I had several moons in the frame as well so I processed an image to show them as well.
The seeing wasnt particularly good (5th April) - I estimate about 6/10 and the planet kept bouncing around but I took what I could get.
