SkyWatcher on Saturn

Here's another SkyWatcher 8" capture from last night. This time a Saturn image.

This one was done earlier than the Jupiter posted previously. Taken around 10-30 with the planet close to the meridian.

Same as usual: NexIamge and Powermate 2.5x, 10fps at 1/10th of a second. About 10% gain (due to atmospheric moisture), brightness around 50%.

About 700 frames in Registax, medium wavelets. Nothing else.

Seeing 4-5/10... transparency I'd guess about the same.
