Mike Salway: the Planets 2007 - a Pictorial

Blogged by Jonathan Maron on January 10, 2008 and tagged with Sample Images, Jupiter, Neptune.

Mike Salway took the trouble of sending us a composite image, showing the best planetary images that he captured during 2007.

Accompanying his image, Mike writes:

All images were captured with my 12″ newt on EQ6, with DMK 21AF04, 5x powermate, Atik manual filter wheel and Astronomik RGB filters.

I'm disappointed I didn't make any effort to capture Mercury or Neptune, but in 2008 I'll definitely be doing so.

I'm looking forward to the challenges and opportunities that 2008 will bring, especially with another great season of Jupiter coming up!
