Saturn

Success, at last!

Put out the C6 to its rounds of night sky gazing and it had the capacity for allowing the Star Shoot to grab a picture of Saturn, as it loomed in the sky millions of miles away. Got some friends over, who dropped by after supper, to enjoy its sight too! :-)

I had earlier set up the equipment around 11.30 p.m. and went for the short marathon gazing right till 2.00 a.m. Capturing this sight of Saturn after many missed tries earlier on was certainly a great moment which was akin to striking a lottery! Even if the one shot pic isn't much to shout about, just the effort put in and getting a reasonable display as such was enough.

Later on, as I was packing up, the moon appeared peeking halfway in the night sky. Viewed it through the eyepiece awhile before calling it a night. It was a good night out for a Friday! :-D
