That would quite an achievement, a little dimmer than Uranus according to the link 🙂

20% stack and 150% resize. Allowed me to push the data a little more i think.

Even if you can not see it with your eyes, it is always worth pointing the camera in the right direction and taking a few snaps. As i found out the other week i could not see the aurora, but the camera could 🙂 The visibility only lasted around an hour that night, but i caught the tale end of it for the first time from Bedfordshire. While not the same as seeing it with the naked eye, it was still pleasing to capture it from this far south.

Very nicely captured

Superb set of images there

Very nicely captured despite the conditions

Terrific set of images

very nicley captured

very enjoyable thread to read, love reading all the different views regarding FL and optimum imaging scales. Something i have "wrestled" with for years, without truly having a definitive answer 🙂 In answer to question of focus though i always focus on the planet. I stand back from the monitor and watch the planet for making tweaks as the seeing inevitably comes and goes. You going get plenty of out of focus frames most nights, hence its called lucky imaging. A term i dislike, because there is very little involved when you look at some of the images produced by planetary imagers around the world.

Excellent start Ian, the processing is a huge subject on its own and feels like it varies from night to night.

As Geof said not much in it, but the 1 minute videos do seem a little sharper though.

Excellent capture Reggie, always good to see the GRS on view

Lovely capture some nice detail there

Very nicely captured Reggie

Superb images, the seeing seemed pretty good on the 6th, my bed (work) was calling unfortunately before the transit started. got some nice views of the GRS though before

Any tips regarding the settings for frequency domain filter you used Stuart?
