1st look and image of Saturn in 20+ years !

[malc-c]

My 4th time out with the scope and I finally got to see Saturn. Wonderful detail using a Celestron 8mm X-cel and 2x barlow... Even managed to get a useful image using a NexImage webcam... so excited I couldn't wait to upload it

Attached image came to 700 odd frames stacked in registax and then contrast tweaked in Photoshop - no zooming, or cropping.

I've no idea what I'm doing in registax, just let it do its thing using the defaults !

I'm pleased with my 1st result

Edit: just zoomed the image a tad looks even better now

Very nice first attempt , can make out hints of the cassini division and some banding
