Saturn 2019-08-20 04:50 UTC

Description

Unlike most nights, I started imaging Saturn with the methane band filter since the C8 was already focused for imaging without a barlow.

Notes:

The North North Temperate Belt is dark.
The North Equatorial Belt is split by a thin band.

Equipment

ZWO ASI290MM

Astro-Physics Advanced Convertible Barlow
