Awesome work there Brendan. I'll have to have another go at Saturn, I want to make a Bahtinov Focusing Mask to aid in focusing, I've read very promising reports and it should be simple enough to construct one.

Very nice mate. With Saturn being so low in the sky you will never be able to use a X5 powermate for imaging

Thanks guys,

I spent a bit more time processing this. I am undecided as to which one is better. What do you guys think?
