Hi,

I also managed to get a Saturn sketch as well. Saturn's image was very clean during this observation. Most of the features shown here are the predictable ones. The SPR appeared a little darker than I remember earlier in this year's opposition. It somewhat greenish as well.

Sol,

A highly detailed observation of Saturn showing delicate features depicted over the globe and rings. I am glad you experienced good seeing conditions and that your new instrument (9.6" Newtonian reflector) is working very well. I look forward to your future observations.
