Hi Wes,

Great image as usual. Is that the first image you've tried merging two halves of your image after separate alignments? It seemed to work out very well for you. Thanks for posting.

Another Saturn...

Posted By Edward Roach

Hi Mike,

Superb image as usual from you. I notice when I use wavelets if I try to push for too much detail in the "globe", then the Cassini division gets enlarged. I also believe wavelets 5 & 6 sharpen Cassini more than the lower numbers.
I also think wavelets is just a series of unsharp masks. Maybe some more knowledgable members will chime in as I'd also like to find out what they think.

Steady Viewing from Utah

Hi Tyler,

Congratulations on a great image. Nice details and color, and you also got the C Ring. Glad to see you had some good conditions. I always like to see nice images coming from 8" SCT's, but I may be a little biased. grin

Clear skies,

Saturn with the Atik camera

Hi Paul,

Superb image of Saturn. Probably the best I've seen with that size scope. I want an Atik now too. grin

Hi Alan,

That's a wonderful looking image. I'd love to image in a warmer climate as my normal imaging sessions have averaged between 10 & 30 degrees Fahrenheit this winter.

That's an amazing image Alan. That seems like a great camera, does it keep your breath fresh while imaging also? grin
