Thanks Paul, I really am hanging out for a ripper night to do justice to the very nice alt, but so long as I can resolve the features I am targeting I am reasonably happy.

Thanks Asi, early last year the rings opened to 15 degrees but then spent most of the year at about 12 to 13 degrees so the current very nice approx 19 degrees certainly presents the rings at a more favorable angle. It really is quite noticeable now in reasonable seeing to see the limb of the planet through the CD.

Thanks John, I relied on the drift chart I had produced for that spot to frame my capture session.

Thanks Alan, Saturn is certainly well positioned and worth having a crack at.
