[APML] Single Film Exposure of Saturn 2001

["Jason Lewis" <jlewis@nomoon.org>]

Greetings,

Here's a photo of Saturn made from a single film exposure.  I made
digital adjustments to brightness and contrast only.  There was no
stacking, smoothing, or deconvolution of any kind.

    Scope:  12" SCT (LX200)
     Date:  Nov 11, 2001, near midnight
     Film:  Fuji Superia Extra 400
 Exposure:  3 seconds
 Projection Eyepiece: University Optics Orthoscopic 12.5mm
  Telextender: Standard Meade extender at maximum extension

It was a night with zero wind and great seeing.  Transparency was
fair-OK.

Jason
