Saturn from sat.10th

Hi all.

Seeing conditions let me down a bit on this one, was all over the place ranging from 4-9/10.

I've been bed-ridden since saturday morning with a flu that has 'complicated' itself....might have something to do with ignoring doc's advise & getting out there in the wee hours to image saturn...

First wog I've had in 6 years, & it's a rip-snorta!

6" refractor + toUcam.

Hey Asi

You're doing some great work with that 6" refractor - great images. Sorry to hear of your ailments...naughty boy going against Doc's orders, although I completely understand.

Get better soon,

Dennis

And thanks guys. Sorry for spoiling the thread by dropping that second image in but I'm not one to just show you the best....you get to see my worst ones too!

Agree with Robert_T. Your Saturn has a 3D feel to it. Well done!

Hey Asi - care to elaborate on the "Skirt Boy" tag under your avatar... your loved one hasn't gone and bought and incredibly expensive vacuum cleaner that you can't stop using now hmmm

asimov (John) · #15 12-12-2005, 05:02 PM

It's referring to Dave P calling me skirt-boy in the 'sorry to S&S' thread that got locked...
