Moon, Mars and Saturn - 5th April

[hayju01]

A trio from tonights endeavours. Not bad considering 24hrs from full moon but an exceptionally clear night, mighty cold though!!!

'Seeing' wasnt too great you could tell my the large amount of twinkle the stars had.

Moon @ F10 - stiched in ICE and RasterStitch

Saturn @F10 - drizzled .5 in RS6

Mars @F10 - drizzled .5 in RS6

Tried Mars and Saturn at F25 but dont think the 'seeing' was playing nice.

All comments welcomed, thanks for looking.

Nice images there.

I was observing these three targets last night and the seeing was so terrible which makes them even more impressive.

Nice work all round Justin

Very impressive Mars and Saturn Justin!

Thank you all. I've been trying to improve that Mars image today but it's having none of it. Probably down to seeing and partly that I was using rgb24 last night.

The Saturn image literally just 'popped' into place with very little wavelet adjustments and looks like I may even have an F25

Looking forward to opposition later this month as well.

Thanks again guys
