philjay Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Here's my attempt from last night, it says it all on the image. Not a lot of detail in there due to turbulence but I wanted to have a bash at doing it the old fashioned way. Colours were quite subtle with the rings being stark white but the disc and belts being more yellow with yellow / orange turning to more greyish yellow closer to the polar region. The scan has lost some of the definition so I had to increase the contrast / levels but this has made it rather blocky but it gives the idea Hers the observing report for last night http://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/4864-29th-april-2013/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Lovely sketch Phil. I observed Saturn as well last night and as you say there wasn't much colour in the planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldfruit Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Nice sketch, i was actually observing Saturn last night and would say you have captured a pretty good representation of what was visible at the eyepiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
