First image - Jupiter, Starturn and Mars !!!

[Nuno]

Hi everyone,

I havent been here for a while and I also havent been stargazing from the past 2 months I think, cuz the weather and work and everything

But yesterday I could manage to take my SW 200p out to my balcony and get some views of Jupiter

Well I manage to recorded it and I went processing the result and I think it was good for 1st time using registax. So I was really happy and I waited for Saturn and Mars to appear to do the same thing

Here are the results

PS: Mars was hard as hell to track. I was manually tracking the objects with a cannon powershot holded to the scope eyepiece

Pretty impressive for a first go. Mars has even got some surface detail there. Well done.

very nice considering the mars isn't an easy one to get even with good tracking

Mars looks good to me too.

They look great, especially when you consider you were holding the camera to the eyepiece! Well done!

[Carina Lass]

Ripper result - you have a steady hand.

Well done

Good results! I was trying for all three last night but I was scuppered by some cloud which the Met Office claimed was not there!

Thank you everyone.. Yes, I was very happy to get this picture of mars

I think yesterday was the alignement of Mars, Earth and the Sun.. So I can say it was a "Mars day" for me xD

I am only now learning how to use registax.. I hope to master it to get better results xD

Cheers

Nice set of images there Nuno!

[Pete Presland]

a very nice collection of images. i think there is even a hint of cassini division on Saturn, very well done especially with manual tracking!

Nice work, considering you was digiscoping. 

I took 20 minutes of webcam footage of mars on Tuesday at its opposition. Soo many air currents, I just couldnt get a decent image out of it. I would have been more than happy with what you did there.
