John McLennan posted his "quick" image of Saturn to the Sky-Watcher Australia Facebook group.
Taken using a 200mm (8") Newtonian reflector on a Sky-Watcher EQ6 Pro mount using a ZWO ASI290 mono camera.
How do you get a colour image from a mono ie black and white camera? He used a series of coloured filters and combined the images using software. This technique helps increase the resolution and image quality as opposed to using a colour camera.
Thanks for sharing this John. We reckon it turned out pretty good especially considering it's from only an 8" telescope!

Some interesting news - only two years since "Oumuamua" buzzed through the Solar System!
Is Another Interstellar Visitor Headed Our Way? - Sky & Telescope
An amateur has discovered a comet that might be the second interstellar visitor after 'Oumuamua — and it's heading for perihelion late this year.
Michael Pan @michaelhuapan used a Canon 650D plus a Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer mount to take these great images of winter night sky favs - the Trifid (M 20) and Lagoon (M 8) Nebulae.
To cut down on the effects of light pollution Michael also used a Astronomik CLS-CCD Filter. This works by allowing light from certain wavelengths from the excited hydrogen gas in emission nebulae like the Trifid and Lagoon while largely blocking from many other sources.
A ZWO ASI120MM helped guide the long exposure. The lens is a Sigma 150-600 C
A great result Michael and thanks for the share!

*New Equipment!* Unboxing The Sky-Watcher Esprit 120ED and The EQ6-R Mount
Huge shout-out to the whole team at Sky-Watcher for setting me up with this wonderful equipment! It will all go to really good use and I am super excited to ...
Short video from @urban_astronomer setting up his Sky-Watcher AZ-EQ6 and 250mm (10") for an evening viewing.
Gives you a good idea of the telescopes size too.
