Saturn Tonight

Finally starting to get somewhere, once I get this toucam sorted out and some real nice seeing, I should be able to get some nice stuff.

Very nice considering the seeing out there tonight. Can't wait to see a 10/10 night image.

What do you mean "some nice stuff"? That's brilliant Exfso! Especially seeing how low Saturn is for you at the moment. How long have you been using the ToUcam? A week or two ago you posted your first shot.

Yep, aint it the truth. Damn cloud and quite high humidity, not much wind though which is a change. My scope was ringing wet after only about 1hr. God this is an addictive hobby.

Nice image Exfso. In the absence of any break in the blanket of clouds over the Central Coast tonight, it's good to see a clear image of an old friend in the sky. Have you had a go at Jupiter yet?

Not tonight as yet, the cloud has rolled in. Will have a look in an hour or so.

Really really nice Exfso, you're getting some fantastic images after only a very short time.

Obviously the very nice OTA + mount you've got helps, but you've picked up the technique very quickly as well. Paul must've been a good teacher.
