Description

Finally a fairly good night for planet photography (I find only 2 or 3  per year in recent years here in Vienna), so here's another try at Saturn. It continues to be a challenge for me at 29° above horizon. Admittedly this was more of an averaging operation than comfortable  lucky imaging -- took the best 4500 out of 80000 low SNR  images for stacking and further processing.

I need to work on my imaging train, as Saturn is just not bright enough for my setup ... likely I will need to either buy a higher efficiency camera, a less absorptive (i.e. more expensive) ADC or wait a few years, when Saturn gets higher ;-)
