Saturn @f/23.6 127mm Mak 10th March

[AztecastroMcJ]

got few 75 sec avi's @10fps

of Saturn on 10.3.10 at about 11.15pm

using 127mm Mak @f23.6 and

Phillips webcam with UV/IR Filter

seeing and conditions weren't great

odd detail could be seen now and again

lots of noise and blurring on avi and laptop

captured with K3CCD,

stacked 470/750 frames in Registax 5

tweaked in Gimp

pics are 100%, 150%, 200% and 100%

1st 3 pics can be clicked on for full size

this is 3rd attempt at Saturn for me

last time colour seemed very yellow

this time colour seems very green see 1st pic

Very good result. Maybe try to get more frames, Perhaps 4 min avi's to improve the noise. But good detail, and focus I would think, probably everone is struggling with Saturns low elevation.
