Saturn with a single digital compact camera

Yesterday I used the opportunity to take a photo of planet Saturn with my digital compact camera. I was wondering if it even could be possible, but after a few minutes of post-processing of the photos, here is the final result.

planet Saturn with digital camera

I know, this photo cannot be compared to any high-resolution photos taken for example through an astronomical telescope. The photo above was taken without any additional lens. I just wanted to show you that you can do astrophotography even with a simple camera and you do not need to spend money. Astronomy can be done also in a – lets’ say – cheap way. Why not if you are interested in universe?
