Saturn Thru the Viewfinder

LOL, Steve, you are definitely going for The Title on the Smallest Saturn ever posted here! wink
Nice shots though, specially The Moon one, as she shows "much more" detail than Saturn... wink


Thank you for sharing!

Don, great image!
Hope you won't mind me playing a lil' bit with it in Photoshop. Applied a bit of Unsharp Mask to bring up hidden detail you had in the core & arms of the galaxy... quite a nice shot you got!

Thanks for sharing! wink

Nice shot Victor!
So many things to capture, so many things to buy, so much to learn...

What equipment/settings you used to get this shot?
Keep it up, and thanks for sharing! wink

Good color & detail captured for such a short time...
Looking forward to your next shots! wink
