Atlas and Hercules. C8 @ F20 Toucam Pro, 74 frames of 600, seeing P5 to P6. Seeing got decent around 1 am so I waited for Saturn. By the time Saturn was high enough to image, the offshore breeze picked up and seeing spiraled down to a P3 in a matter of minutes, Arrrgggghhhh! Well, at least I stayed up til 4 am!

Vince -

Very fine images - your Petavius also. It's a funny life sitting outside in the middle of the night waiting for the air to get still. No wonder out neighbors (and family) think we are nuts!

Nice Image! I woke up at 4:00, thought about getting up, and fell asleep while making the decision :^)!
Congratulations!
