Saturn from Murrumbateman, Feb 10 was created by bird
We've had a *lot* of rain and cloud so far this year, not very good for imaging!

The clouds cleared for a while this morning, but the image still looked a bit blurry - maybe there was some high altitude jetstream activity.

The only interesting part of this image is the polar region at the bottom of this image (green) that's just becoming visible.

This image was made from three separate runs of 400 seconds each in R,G and B. R and G were at 15fps, B at 12fps. Image has been reduced from native size by 25%.

Scope: www.acquerra.com.au/astro/lexx.html



regards, Bird

Great shot all the same Bird!
I think you would crack up if you had to live in cloudy Ireland!
