Subject: Saturn March 20!

Thanks for everyone's helpful responses from yesterday!  Last night the greater Toronto area 

experienced good skies and I think it helped my imaging of Saturn:

Alan:  Hope you were able to image last night, Buffalo probably had similarly good skies

Tim:  I am luckily using dichroic RGB filters that came with this budget priced Apogee filter 

wheel - don't know if it's worthwhile spending more on name brand filters?

Phil:  I generally use an IR blocking filter upstream of the flip mirror to avoid and color 

imbalance.  I've also been balancing my colors by making the rings as white as possible, is 

there a PS tool that allows you to designate an area a certain color and then auto adjust the 

other areas relative to that one?
