Grand image Dave, finer then what you'd get with the poor auld toucam, I must get my hand on one of these Lumenera Skynyx2-0, they look like they do a great job.

Great image Dave.
(We see the shadow because the earth has moved 4% sideways off the Earth/Sun/Saturn line in the 7 days,of course.)

Thanks Folks

Ninox is a nifty piece of freeware I've just discovered. It crops the image centring the planet in the process and also sorts for quality in the same way gradient does in Regi. So you have less work for Regi to do and you seem to get better and more consistent results.

Frank that sounds very interesting. When u say "Largers" image to you mean to create a larger black area around the planet??

Seanie I've done an auto color balnce that looks better and will post that tomorrow.

Dave if U want a Lum then Carl is your man.
