Hi Jaicoa,

Nice shots. Has the weather been bad? The Saturn Nebula NGC 7009 is a really beautiful object.

Thanks Darryl, Very bad lots of rain. Hurricane Omar just skined us, winds got upto 125mph but luckily it went east as it approached us-lucky.
yes this planetary is small but with nice features and very beauiful. I used some Ha to bring out the side jet stream tips to stand out more giving its appearance of the planet saturn. And it was my first light dso on my new lx200acf 12 in. no calibration required i was surprised, verified couple of times and it was on the money. Clear Skies my friend.
Sorry for my late reponse, need to check more often in this area of the forum.
