First planetary attempt, Jupiter - 24-02-2019

Hey all,

I've been wanting to do some planetary imaging for a long while now, but really haven't had the equipment. not too long ago i picked up a used Sky-watcher 127 Mak-Cass from an IIS user. I paired this beautiful little gem of a scope with a 2x barlow and my QHY5IIL-M quidecam for this image. Due to seeing, dawn light creeping in and issues with the tracking of the Alt/Az mount, i could only catch a very short set of frames.

Best 75% of about ~800 frames, stacked in AutoStakkert2
