I'm surprised we haven't seen any other Saturn images here on CN already Amrit...we're hoping that tomorrow morning or the next might give us a clear window, but like you clouds are a real worry atm!

Good start, looking for better soon.

I set everything up last night and got up early to make an attempt this morning, but the fog beat me :(. Hopefully soon...

I set up and was ready to go. Just was waiting for the planets to rise and provide better seeing. The one.....two...and then a whole bunch of clouds.



But bet your bottom dollar, during the work week, it's gonna be crystal clear
