I use it only for deconvoluting and realigning RGB channels. Otherwise I PS much better. In saying that the latest version does look superb I bought mine at version 2.07.

Michael, DaveG,
The club had an observing session on the hill on Boher on Friday night / saturday morning, we stayed there until 3.30, totally exhausted and forzen.
Anyway, we got our first glimpse of Saturn through the scopes and the cresent moon facing the "wrong" way, there was a fair amount of turbulance, so I didnt even try to get an image.
I imagine that at maybe 5 or 6 in the morning, Saturn would have been high enough to get a good image,

Also got a naked eye view of Venus on Thursday morning, and boy is it very bright.
