Saturn 25-8-2024

First time out this season in not the best of conditions but managed a couple of runs, cassini scarcely visible but not an easy target when nearly edge on anyway!

Taken with a C9 & skyris 236m 1.5 x amplification. Actual image scale.

Nice, and glad someone is getting some respite from the clouds, wind and rain. I keep trying and hoping.........................

The conditions have been lousy to say the least last night clouds were an issue with me too.

Very nice effort there, colours are lovely. I’ve yet to get anything this season. Usually my first of the season is terrible as I’ve forgotten everything!

Cheers Craig, i know what you mean especially on the processing side remembering the routine & sequences to achieve that final result.

That is a great first time out image of Saturn Simon. You have captured some nice subtle banding and the colour balance looks spot on.
