Saturn 04 Oct.2022

[ic_1101]

This was my most recent try at Saturn. I have the EdgeHD11 set up in the observatory and have patiently been praying for some good seeing but the best I've gotten was average (between 5-6).
This image was taken Oct.04 with the EdgeHD11 and a 2x Powermate. Altitude was 30° with gain set to 400 and exposure at 10ms. I took the best 10% of the 120sec (9600) frames and processed in Autostakkert, RegiStax and Photoshop.
I'm not certain but I think that's the best I'm going to get with the current seeing conditions. I will keep at it for another 2 weeks hoping for some above average to excellent seeing after which I'll go back to deep sky imaging.
Thanks for looking and your C&C always appreciated
Cheers

Thx Dave!
I have read up about Astrosurface but haven’t yet tried it. If you have are your results better then using the separate programs?
