Very nice images, is that Titan near Saturn?

Hi Pete thanks for looking , and thanks for pointing this out about Titan. I have just had a look back in Stellarium to the date and time it was taken and yes Titan is close to Saturn. So i do think you are right and that it is the moon . Didn't really notice it in my rush to get my image out at the time.

Best Regards

                    Bob.

Hi every one,  This is my best effort at the conjunction, unfortunately i have been clouded out since so failed to get them at there closest...It is a 2sec exposure @ISO6400 taken with a Canon 1100d and Samyang 500mm f/6.3 mirror lens. .Shot was taken on the 20th Dec @ 17-26pm , from my observatory in Packmoor, Stoke-on-Trent.

Bob.

Hi everyone, this is a 1sec exposure of the two planets taken on Tuesday 15th with my dslr setup. I was lucky i think as the clear spell was brief but at the right time.

Thanks Bob, you are usually the Mistro at Comets, have you managed to grab any of it?

Hi John, yes i have managed to imaged it a couple of times with two different rigs from my garden and obs in the last few days when it was clear, but it is in a poor part of the sky for me .Also seen it with the naked eye about eight days or so ago in the morning sky just coming light, and through my 16x50 bins it was a cracking sight. I have put a couple of posts of it on here in the wide field and comets section with the two rigs. 

Take care and stay safe

Bob.

A cracking image John.

Bob.

I decided as bit of an experiment with APP to use both the CR2 and the JPEG files which my canon downloaded to my computer to stack ,giving me twice the exposure time.78 CR2 77 JPEG [ I didn't know if it would stack the two together] Here is the result in JPEG format. Taken on the 20th.

Bob.

Lovely images John.     

Thanks John for your comment. Will be having another try tonight hopefully if all goes to plan.

Bob.

I thought it was never going to happen, imaging F3 before it faded to much but this morning i got my chance.

12x5s subs captured in APT, stacked and processed in APP and tweeked in photoshop. No darks or flats.

Canon 1100d ...with old Carl Zeiss Jena lense mounted on Cpc 800.
