Heres the first Saturn vid I processed from the other night. I pushed the levels a bit too far to bring our the banding a bit more so the image is a bit on the yellow side, but what ya gonna do. :D

I saw 6 visually that night Dave and there was definatly 1 in the FOV of the imaging runs. Think it was Enceladus, close to the rings, but I can't recall whether I cropped it out or it just disappeared when I was messing about with the contrast, brightness and colour levels.

I'll have to look at that capture again and get going on the rest. I think I might also see a storm near the limb on the bottom left. Might be an animation in the offing. :P

Those small objects can get processed out quite easily.

An animation would be cool - if you have the time...
