Here are my shots of last night's occultation through my SN-6. There were several other telescopes from the location I was at, and it was a nice night of observing. I got to look through an Ethos for the first time, as well as clearly see the Cassini division in Saturn's rings. The most amazing scope there was a monster TEC 140 on a Mach1GTO, a $12000 setup. (not including the thousands worth of eyepieces!) The view of Saturn through that baby was probably the best I'll have for a long time; it completely blew away the view through the 20'' Obsession at the same place. I also got to see spiral arms in a galaxy for the first time (through the Obsession) and look through Takahashi and TeleVue telescopes (Sky 90 and NP101.)

Your photo is beautiful
I did see the setup last night up in the sky, the moon looked gorgeous with the bright earthshine on it and the pleiades right next to it, I wanted to photograph it, but clouds came creeping in, so thanks for the shot as I missed it. We are in complete cloud cover again this evening

Great work imaging these together. A very tough exposure challenge!

Kind regards
Matt

brilliant shot Siguy.

thanks for sharing

we had cloud cover too, unlike the previous night
