Saturn 27Jan2006 (2nd attempt)

After posting my first attempt at Saturn yesterday (see thread "My first Saturn pic (25/01/2006)") and saying I don't think I will do any better than this, I just went back to a series of 23 images I took on 27 Jan 2006 and decided to play around with Registax.

After following David's Registax tutorial, this was the result of my efforts

Don't forget it is only a 40mm refractor for those just tuning in who were expecting Hubble quality images!

Good start Middy,
If you could see my first attemp at Saturn you'd swear your's was taken with Hubble.

Soon you'll be cranking them out non-stop.
Good work.

That is a great effort for a 40mm refractor. I take my hat off to you for trying this with a relatively small aperture, following through by processing the results in Registax and posting the results - great job.

The work you are doing and lessons you are learning will stand you in good stead when you are able to image through a larger instrument.

Cheers

Dennis

I thought I'd already seen the best Saturn you could take with a 40mm refractor... but this tops even your last effort - good onya Middy!
