Saturn on Feb 24 and 25

Hi Paul -

Before getting the filter wheel, why not try using the ToUcam to capture the color and the ATK to capture the luminance image in B&W and combining the two (in Photoshop) to create an LRGB image. The ATK captured very nice detail in B&W.

best,
Alan

Here is an LRGB composite of your images one and three. I tweaked the color in the first image a little.

Jupiter - LRGB w/4" apo

Very nice smooth image and colors. This should be a great set-up when the seeing improves.

I appreciate the aesthetic of planet at this angle - but it does make my neck hurt a little.

Excellent! I think this may be the beginning of a beautiful friendship - between your 9.25 and 5x barlow.
