    Saturn with a Canon SX50

    For interest only really - always keen to see what the zoom on this thing can do. Taken earlier tonight. If you're inspired to go looking, Saturn is off to the side of Scorpio and Sagittarius- almost directly overhead at 8-9pm, and is the brightest object in that part of the sky.

    A curious thing though when I looked closer and sharpened the image....
