A one off exposure with my Canon 600D attached to my Skymax 127. Didn't get my webcam out tonight as the clouds were coming so I thought I'd just try my DSLR. I am so pleased with my first attempt...can't wait to get all the gear out now  :D

Really well done Kylee, you're getting some good "first time" results.

That's amazingly clear, good shot.

It is healthier to be mutton dressed as lamb, than mutton dressed as mutton!

Well done Kylee - it looks great.

Brilliant, Kylee. You are joining the ranks of the great and clever.  Keep up the good work, Tellystar.  :D

Well done - it's a very clear image.

There really is nothing like the thrill of catching Saturn for the first time - it's a thing of wonder.

Try it again with a webcam and a Barlow - you'll be surprised at the difference.

I'll definitely do that Mark...can't wait to have another go. I was surprised at how amazing a one off exposure came out. Every time I see Saturn with my own eyes I'm so excited...what an amazing sight  :D
