This was the last night of my run...  my 4th in a row.   Sadly,  I could have kept going,  but I am so sick with this devil cold now (10 days)  I could not image last night and probably not tonight either though it looks to be clear enough again.

This night was good,  though it would have  been better if I could have waited for the seeing to settle a bit - images were wobbly,  but the details were there.  Just harder for the stacking software to handle and I am sure I lost at least a bit of detail.

Still.....  they are pretty good,  and I am happy.

I went more modest with the scale of the colour image this time.

Hope some enjoy

 

Very best regards and clear skies!

140mm F7 @ F14.   Saturn-C camera.  2X barlow.  Best 400 of 2000.  4 Panels.  More details on pic.

 

 

Next up is my  mono effort with 183MM shot at F21 reduced here to critical sampling of F11.3.   More details on pic.   

 

And lastly,  the same data as above,  but at the full captured resolution of F21 - 136 MP.   Soft....  but great for feature hunting!

 

 

Clear skies and good health to all!!
