Uranus w/570nm LP

[Layton]

Could only get 1200 frames in this capture and wasn't able to get any detail before clouds rolled in quickly.  I'll give it another shot once I get some clear skys.   Taken with a 8" SCT and ASI290MC.

May I inquire why you've chosen to use an orange filter on Uranus? You've gotten my attention, as I love filters and Uranus, too. It's a coin-toss between Uranus and Neptune as my all-time favorite planets to both observe and view images of.

Fascinated,

Dave

It's the color of the Baader 570nm LP filter I used.   It was recommended by someone since it provides a little more light for my size scope rather than the 610nm red filter.
