About this image

Saturn was less than 16 degrees above horizon so this image was a challenge, especially as I was using a 5in scope on a less than state of the art altaz mount.  Cassini division visible and if you squint a hint of cloudtop detail.  Best 2,000 from 11,000 frames, processed in PIPP, AS2, Registax and Faststone Image Viewer.
