About this image

Catching up with processing some old data:

Neptune & its brightest moon, Triton, from the good seeing back on 11th Oct. With 642nm AN filter, Mars Mii cam. & 444mm Dobsonian. 9.4mins total accumulated exposure time. Colourised mono image. Some vague markings on the globe but this is shot noise rather than indication of any real features, as no correlation seen between patterns in first half of the data versus the second half of the data.
