I've had a rather large SCT telescope collecting dust for over 10 years. Somehow I was not able to get it adjusted and it's been frustrating. But I lately received some tips, learned some new tricks and it's finally usable.
It's still not quite in focus and the lens is not truly collimated but I was able to get more detail on the largest object in our Solar system after the sun than I ever managed before.
This image was created by combining the best 10% of a 3 minute video.

30 s SER files were taken with a ZWO ASI120MM camera through Optolong CCD RGB filters on a Celestron Edge HD 925 telescope using FireCapture. The top 80% of frames went into 7 stacks of each color filter. These stacks were made in AutoStakkert, then sharpened in PixInsight. Stacks were combined and derotated in WinJUPOS, and the resulting R, G, and B images were combined in WinJUPOS to make a de-rotated single color image. Color balancing in Registax, then final touches in Photoshop.

Mars is at it's closest approach to Earth until 2035. It's still 39 million miles away though. This is my second attempt at capturing a planet and while its not as good as others I've seen I'm happy with the amount of detail I was able to pull out of the bright red dot in the sky.

Software:

I began the evening polar aligning my scope with my guide scope/cam and SharpCap. After viewing some objects, and waiting for Mars to rise high in the sky, I put on a jacket, hat and set out to get everything ready. After locating Mars with the camera on my computer screen I fiddled with settings to try to get to 3 milliseconds for my exposures. I realized my focus wasn't perfect so I slewed the scope to a nearby star, Hamal. I used a bahtinov mask to get it as focused as I could and took the scope back to Mars. I got my setting dialed in and began to record. I did several sessions each being just under a minute of recording to get the 100,000 frames at 333fps. I then packed up and went to bed. - Today I used Autostakkert!3 to analyze each frame in my videos. I settled on one session that had high quality frames, since I shot so many I decided to really narrow it down to the best and told the program to stack the best 10%, or 10,000 frames. After stacking was complete I brought the outputted file into Registax. Using their processing tools I tweaked the histogram, color and then used the most powerful set of tools in the program, wavelets. I don't really know what I'm doing, but I know what makes an image "good". So I messed with each layer adding sharpness and de-noise until I got what I feel is a balance between resolution and not making the whole thing look like a digital artifact. I saved that as a TIFF and brought it into photoshop for some color tweaks, a bit of structure in Viveza and a last little bit of sharpness.
I present to you my take on Mars at opposition, 2020.

The 30% histogram, which seemed to work well for recent closeups of Mons Rumker, Aristarchus Plateau, and Marius Hills, seems to have muted the colors and contrast in this image.

I was trying out some new equipment tonight and figured the Moon would make a good target. This is a mosaic built from 11 tiles taken through an Optolong blue filter with a ZWO ASI120MM with a Celestron Edge HD 925. Seeing was maybe 2 or 3 out of 5 -- not a great night for detail work. SER files were 1000 frames each, and each tile used between 225 and 350 of the best frames. FireCapture was used for acquisition and AutoStakkert for stacking. Tiles were processed in PixInsight first, then composited in Photoshop. A few small touch ups in each of those programs gave this final result.

Rus.: Вторая встреча с Сатурном
Сатурн... ну, прям как девушка: на первом свидании не позволил подобраться ближе ;-)
Я, конечно, не удержался от попытки сделать фото, но ничего из той попытки не вышло.
Зато по итогам первой встречи рассчитал максимальную продолжительность видеоролика для своего оборудования. Оказалось, что Сатурн с моим оборудованием готов позволить ок. 2 минут видеоролика: Сатурн не так "вертляв", как Юпитер, - оборачивается вокруг своей оси за 10.5 часов против 9 часов Юпитера и угловой размер его диска меньше - отсюда разница в продолжительности роликов почти двукратная.
Тем не менее, эту шуструю планету, как и Юпитер, лучше снимать с максимальной частотой кадров сравнительно короткими сессиями (пока не успевает заметно повернуться).
Ко второй встрече с Сатурном подготовился лучше и, улучив погоду, предпринял попытку в ночь с 17 на 18 июля. На этот раз чуть более удачно ;-)
Для "шустрых" (быстро вращающихся) планет выбираю режим съёмки видео. Позже обрабатываю с выбором наилучших кадров и их суммированием в соответствующих программах. Несколько разных видеороликов помогает складывать программа WinJupos - она суммирует ролики за разное время с учётом вращения планеты, так получается накопить больше кадров, чем позволяет лимит одиночного ролика (см.выше об этом лимите).
Чтобы попытаться заполучить цвет, решил сделать ещё 5 обычных фото в RAW-формате (возможно, немного ошибся при совмещении слоёв видео и фото).
Зато так удалось приблизиться к тому, что видел в окуляре (а видел лучше, чем удалось передать на фото).
Буду ждать новой встречи с этой очень красивой планетой ;-)

"Copernicus Crater"
April 2, 2020
Copernicus crater (93 km width, 3.8 km depth) is one of the most prominent features on the Moon, easily seen with binoculars, even during the full moon phase, sitting in its webwork of rays.
Here it is seen at high magnification. Its rays are discernable, especially in the lower right. Notice the myriad secondary craters surrounding it, most gouged by rocks blasted up by the original impact explosion, each digging a new crater of its own when it fell back to the Moon. The raised outer rampart walls are prominent, as are the terraced inner walls and central peak. Rubble (massive boulders) is strewn about the crater floor, especially in the southern half.

Rus.: Марс
Выезжали с одноклубниками по астрофоруму на Персеиды. Позже надеюсь опубликовать пейзажи с метеорами.
Но кроме Персеидов моими целями был уходящий Марс (так хотелось его заполучить в год великого противорстояния) и комета 21P/Giacobini-Zinner.
Фото кометы уже вовсю хвастаюсь, но в обработке явно поспешил и за пределы астрофорума то фото не идёт.
Надеюсь и им поделиться, когда смогу достойно (или хоть приемлемо) обработать свою добычу.
А вот Марс... Вначале фотосета казалось, что шансов у меня вновь нет. Марс прятался в дымке и на пике своей высоты (низкой в наших широтах) не позволял увидеть никаких деталей.
Я уже начал разбирать набор аксессуаров для съёмки планет, когда через несколько минут Марс опустился ниже и выглянул из казавшейся безнадёжной дымки.
И выглянул удивительно чётким. К сожалению, свидание с Марсом продолжалось не долго - только один видеоролик менее 3мин. из почти получасового фотосета оказался приемлемого качества.
Это именно тот момент, когда Марс выглянул из дымки. И то в этом видеоролике пришлось отбраковать половину кадров.
Оставшаяся половина в сумме дала этот хоть и скромный, но доррогой для меня результат ;-)
По-моему, можно увидеть не только признаки шапки льда на Юге планеты, но и ряд других деталей.
Увы, в этом году Марс хоть и подошёл весьма близко, но прячется не только за земной дымкой на низких высотах, но и за собственной пылевой бурей, которая разыгралась на планете аккурат к её сближению с Землёй.
И, тем не менее, хоть такое фото в момент противостояния заполучить удалось...
Гораздо больше попыток я сделал в ночь лунного затмения, но те ролики ещё требуют обработки и не уверен, что их качество выше.
Хоть именно та ночь была формально лучшей для наблюдения (пик противостояния и более высокое положение Марса над горизонтом).

This from 10 45 s SER files taken with a ZWO ASI224MC camera with 3x Barlow and a ZWO UV/IR cut filter through the C14 at Cerritos College. I used FIreCapture to take this data. SER files were used to create stacks of the best 25% of frames in AutoStakkert, and those stacks were processed in PixInsight. The resulting images were registered and derotated in WinJUPOS, with the result undergoing some final tweaks in GIMP.
The lighter area along the central meridian is Elysium Mons. Gale Crater, where the Curiosity rover is exploring, is also near the meridian of this image. The north polar ice cap is also prominent.
