Tom,

Another great image of Saturn.

Are these images a single shot or a stacked image??

Can you give some details about the exposure data.

Happy New Year to you and Jen.

Tony

I got up again at 4:00 to do a seeing check, hoping the result would be a
return to bed.  But no, there was only a bit of image motion at 300x.  I
came away with a much better image of Saturn than yesterday's.  Notice that
Titan has moved to the east of the planet.

Still need to mess with the color balance, or are the edge-on rings really
that red compared to the disk?
