Hi P{aul,
Just back from a visit to the very cold New Hampshire countryside (Wolfsborough) where I got to see quite a bit of snow and very low temps (minus 20 degres wind/chill).
Your images are great. Excellent detail! Congratulations!

Oh Wow! I guess I like the Dec 3 image a little better but it is very close. Wes, the detail is just unbelievable! 8O I continue to be amazed at the detail and the quality of your images. I AM beginning to think that perhaps you do indeed have your own personal Flying Saucer and you are imaging from in orbit!! shocked

All the Best,

Hi Jim,
Excellent image! I too have noted a division between the C Ring (Crepe Ring) and the B Ring on some of my images. Keep up the Great work! We have all been having troubles with seeing. But, keep at it. Thanks for posting.

Plato in shadow

Whoops it appears I lost my first post.
Wes, once again I am amazed by the high quality of your image. The GLR is doing a study of the floor of Plato. I believe this image would be a great help. Would you mind posting it to the GLR "dominilunari" usergroup?
Your image shows the dome against the West wall as mentiioned by Shultz in his book, Moon Morphology". A truly exquisite image. Yahoooo!! grin

First Saturn Image - advice wanted

Posted By jim phillips

Hello,
Try 10 FPS and use around 40% gain, adjusting shutter speed to get the best view on the screen possible. Focus, focus, focus.
