after my midnight moan last night, i will try ooze positivity in this post.

a quick RGB before Saturn vanished behind the conifers, fairly pleased all things considered! C9.25/ASI120MM 3000 frames per channel, stacked around 500

Nice result Pete ... 

Saturn's not going to be an easy capture this year and not going to get easier for the foreseeable , continues sinking further South 'til 2018 ...

Terrible shame that, as the rings are wide open at the moment.

Well done Pete, good to get 1 in the bag and still plenty of time for some more if the weather and conifers permit

Well captured Pete. Yes Saturn is certainly going to be a trial and has been said not likely to improve for a number of years! Conifers for you neighbours' dwellings for me

Not bad at all Pete, its going to be difficult this showing due to low elevation & the problems its brings, like trees buildings etc etc,i will only get about an hour on Saturn due to my location, so might give it a miss all together!

Thanks for all the comments looking forward to another go maybe tomorrow morning
