Seeing did not appear to be very good and the captures were soft and pale but I still feel the resulting images were okay from my C8 on my EVO for this distance from opposition. I have certainly captured much worse this month. Jupiter is from a 3 minute capture that has been drizzled at 1.5x and then reduced in size by 10%. Saturn was a single 6 minute capture at 3am and is at capture size. Camera was a ZWO 262mc and the barlow was 1.6x.

Nice one. One day I hope to be able to get something approaching this. I've been curious about the drizzling options: do you find it makes a big difference to the final image in terms of resolution?
