Saturn With A C5

Nice shot Ken!
I took the liberty to resize your image, making the rings sharper & the planet banding more obvious...
Hope you like it!

Thanks for sharing, and keep it up!

Venus, Mars and Jupiter

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo

Great shots Paul!
Nice to see that Mars is still showing detail, regardless of it's small scale due to increased distance between us.
Venus is nice & sharp, even though it shows no detail due to it's cloud cover.
Jupiter, well, a wealth of detail as usual...


Thanks for sharing!

DARN!
That is King Kong's Coffin!


On the serious side, I would love to see Omega Centauri through that scope!


Clear skies!

114 mm Newt Jupiter

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo

Nice shot Andrew!
Good color & detail captured on your shot...
It even seems you captured a moon, but the stacking must have been a little off and now shows as a small line.

Keep it up!
