This is terrific. May I put this on my Facebook wall? I only have 150 Facebook "friends." So it will not get but a few viewers here in Tampa. Will give credit to "RE" as the photographer. Thanks.

Very nice and thanks for those settings. I tried last night but considerably overexposed the shot. Just curious, did you use mirror lock-up and/or a delayed shutter release?

That's the best shot I've seen so far. Saturn's rings are easily visible and I think you caught four of Jupiter's moons. That's the best shot I've seen so far.

Nice photo. I got faint rings around Saturn but none of Jupiter’s moons and no color at all.

Great job!!! I have the same set up, except add a 1.4 Teleconverter. With that, the lowest F stop is f9. Any suggestions on the other settings with this modification?

OK, I give up, everyone has said everything except what part of the sky is it in. How far up from the horizon is it?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

Nice. I could barely see anything even with binoculars...too many houses and trees in the way and I didn't feel like driving anywhere.
