Hi Carlos,

Another great rendition.

Last Saturday I was comparing views between my 6' refractor with Chromacor and a Tak TOA 130. The GRS was at CM there was a bright oval between a couple of festoons following the the GRS on the NEBs. Hope you get to see that one.

Thanks, Sol Robbins

Hi,

Check out the Rockland Astronomy. They have several dark sky location permits as well.

Hi Carlos,

Terrific observation. Great to see that youv'e caught that spot.

In the past, I ve' seen little anomalies crossing the bright rift in the SEB, but never a spot.

Hi Carlos,

Thanks for sharing observations. I was also observing Saturn this morning though transparency was not the best.

So far I find the SPR to be very interesting. Each observation seems reveal another subtle aspect that's unique to this current apparition.

Hi Carlos,

I spent a fair bit studying the Moon tonight as well. With very good seeing conditions the Moon looked like 3D coral.

I am curious as to how you got the granulated texture between the craters. I find the Moon to be intensely detailed and I am always amazed at this aspect, amongst others, that appears in your Lunar renderings.

A peaceful holdiday to you and best wishes, Sol Robbins
