saturn First attempts at Saturn 23/05/16

Only my second time observing Saturn last night so thought I'd try imaging it as the sky was nice & clear for once! 

All taken with Sky-Watcher Skyliner 200p + 2x Celestron Barlow + QHY5L-II-C.



100 frames stacked in AS2!
De-Noise in Registax.
Wavelets in Astra Image 4.0
Cropped & tweaked in CS6.

Here's my second attempt. ROI was smaller so it gave me a slightly higher magnification.



120 frames stacked in AS2!
De-Noise in Registax.
Wavelets in Astra Image 4.0
Upscaled & tweaked in CS6.

Brilliant. Really shows the difference bigger scopes and better cameras can achieve. I love Saturn.

Thanks!   I can't wait to purchase a higher quality barlow & for my EQ platform to arrive next month, hopefully I'll get much better results.

Saturn is a sight & a half to see through the eyepiece, I love it!
