Uranus 18th Oct. 2012 attempt two

Way better seeing than last night, so back to this tough target!

Best I can do with my equipment. I even stoked up the DMK & had a serious attempt at getting a couple of moons & there is one if I fully stretch the image but I haven't bothered to include it here.

DBK image left & DMK on the right. Natural colour BTW - Made sure I got this correct this time!

Top view of this distant planet John. The size of the disk is exceptional considering the diameter in arc seconds. Thanks.

What an excellent result! It's always good to see images of these neglected outer worlds.

Hi guys & thanks for your comments! Must admit I still get a much bigger kick out of these targets when they have reasonable sized degrees of difficulty about them. It gets a bit robotic with Saturn & Jupiter after a few years.

That is incredible given how far Uranus is from us.

Thank you very much for sharing this photo.
