Uranus

Hello everybody,

This image taken last Friday. Minimal wavelets in Registax, RGB alignment (Registax estimate option) levels adjustment. No colour manipulation. White balance set on 'outdoor' mode. Image scale at about .17 arcsec/pixel (image not resampled). No moons can be extracted from this image but then I couldn't see them at the eye piece either!


Thank you for looking

Mike

Thanks everybody, I just viewed my image on an LCD and you could see artefacts from the text additions that I couldn't see on my old monitor. Image has been updated with a better one

regards Mike
