Sky conditions were not at all good and it looked really terrible on the Sharpcap screen so was surprised to get a result at all.
Looks a little out of focus, but I used a Bahtinov.  

This is 784/1792  frames (40%)
SPC900 & 2 x barlow on ETX125 mounted on NEQ6

Stacked in Registax and PS CS3 to finish off

Thanks Kylee.

Having looked at this in the daylight, I have given it a few more tweaks.
I think this has brightened it up a bit.  Now I must find one of those rare nights when the seeing is good.

Thanks Fay, it's fun doing it.

The RGB needs registration but there is definitely some surface detail and I reckon I can make out the Cassini division.

Well done

Hi Mark, yes some-one else pointed out the colour needs alignment (which is does), but I must admit I thought I was stuck with it.  I should have known better, will have a "go" at the colour.
