Ciao Antonio

Thank you for posting your images. Nice work!

On my monitor the images are a bit on the dark side but otherwise

impressive.  :-)

I also own a FS-102 but seldomly use it for planets these days.

Using the colour version of the Imaging source camera I shot Mars this

year with the FS-102 and 3x Barlow:

I am soon getting a Monochrome camera and some colour filters, I am

looking forward to what can be done...

best regards

Chris

Hi,

I updated my album reporting my efforts with a 4" apochromat and DMK

camera:

Surely, you have enjoyed much better images! Anyway this experience

was fun and 

instructive, with an instrument easy to setup and use. I understand

that I have still much to 

learn about processing and (L)RGB composing... I can't wait for this

last task to be included in 

a future AstroIIDC release, as the software already uses algorithms

for aligning frames in 

movies.

Thanks for any remark and suggestion!

Antonio
