Woooow! Amazing picture rudi. Before I was reading your comment I was wondering where on earth has this guy bought his zoom lens :-)

I wish I still had that 2000mm lens now more than ever never!

How did you do that? It's unbelievable! I can actually imagine that I see Saturn's rings!!

Krys, the lens is so powerful that motorised tracking is required. Even on a tripod the moon disappears from the viewfinder within seconds! I must look for the negative, this was poorly scanned from a small print. The focus is out otherwise one could see the moons of Saturn too! The picture is way overexposed. This is the best of hundreds of (bad) images I took :- (

This is a perfect picture Rudi, it's the kind of image that should have been taken from outer space - my ultimate travel destination.
