I think this is probably my best Saturn ever. Taken with SC3 & RGB filters. I stacked my X2 & X3 barlows to achieve an effective F ratio of f30. Quite pleased with colouring as well. Still not as good as Chris's best but not bad for a small scope.

Cheers,  John.



Less Blue


Ian

that looks very natural, if a little blue (might be my laptop screen though...)

It's good to see some detail without obvious sharpening artefacts.

Thks Ian,

You are probably right about the blue... When I took the images I was suprised at how faint the blue was - In fact I had to turn the gain a lot higher just to be able to see the image on my laptop. The L, R & G were all taken with the same gain setting/ exposure. Consequently I probably haven't got the balance right - I can play with it some more in PS.

Cheers,  John

Ok I have one from a couple of months ago I forgot and have just processed, more noisy than john though.
