I finished my first good image of Uranus.
Planet is colorized from three filtered images (orange, green, blue). Slightly brownish color of rings is entirely artificial. -------------------- |

Tonight was the poster session where Larry Sromovsky was showing these images and I just about fell over when I saw them. Sromovsky was downplaying it, saying it was "easy" when you had adaptive optics on a 10-meter telescope with great seeing and high signal-to-noise. Easy for him to say Leigh Fletcher was standing next to me and saying "these are the greatest images of Uranus in the history of mankind. And womankind."
