Here are two images I made of Saturn with my Orion ED100 on the evening of January 17. I was very surprised how well they turned out. The smaller image was shot with a Shorty 2x barlow and a 2" extender tube giving me F/29. The larger image is a 1.5x resized version of the smaller image. Shot with a Toucam 740 and processed in Registax 3. The stack was 1176 images.

Tomorrow morning....Jupiter!!

Hi Paul,

Nice image with the ED100. Hopefully you'll be getting some soon with your Celestron 9.25

Clear skies,

Ed Roach
