Hi Chris

Nice, shows some interesting detail - Did you use a web cam and stack?

This one --> http://gallery.orpington-astronomy.org.uk/displayimage-312.html ?

I wondered what it was. ;)

When and where was it taken?

Come to think of it, just an answer to "When?" would do...

A friend who's a radio amateur has been lamenting the lack of spots...

Thanks Rick

All details now on, taken at Tuesnoad last with Chris's Baader Herschel Prism on his ED80 using my DSLR at prime projection.  Unfortunately there were no spots that weekend, still a nice pic.
