I'd say you have that new gear working at top form right from the start! That is far better seeing than I've ever had here. Even when I could see the rille back in my film days in Nebraska, I couldn't image it. Exposures were too long. Up here seeing hasn't ever even let me see it. It's wonderful when skill and good seeing come together! Looking forward to more.

Re: Saturn and Moon
Excellent work!
The Alpine Valley shot looks like it was taken from the CSM. And any more resolution with the Saturn picture and one might see the Cassini probe.

I was in 7th grade, during an amateur astronomy meeting, with a homebuilt telescope, that I saw a similar image, although in nowhere near this detail. Still, I saw the rings and Saturn's bands. Awesome!
