Well, The weather finaly broke in upstate New York and I was able to take the cob webs off my Ultima 2K. Sunday was about 10 degrees F and the night's sky rated about a 2. I tried my luck with Saturn anyway. I used a VestaPro to take 5 fifteen second videos. I processed the best 2 videos through Registax. The resulting two images were then run through Astrostack. Comments are always welcome. Thanks for looking.
Better skies for all,
Alex

Very nice Alex, very nice indeed...
Those little Vesta Pro's do a fine job on planets!

Thanks for sharing!

Really nice. The background seems really dark...maybe you clipped the dark end of the histogram? If so, maybe you can tweak it and make the crepe ring visible?

Overall, though, very nicely done!

Jeff,
I tweaked this a bit and I think it worked. What do you think?
