I gave a talk at the Norman Lockyer Observatory on Saturday. I managed to miss the last train, but as a result this meant I was able to use the 10" refractor there to make this drawing of Saturn. There was some chromatic aberration but otherwise the telescope is a good one and a pleasure to use.
Interestingly, the NEB(n) seems to be slightly bluish, so too did the NTB however this may be due to aberration. ShRG and ShGR are now quite pronounced as you would expect this far from opposition.
