Images with IR Blocking Filter

I've now captured some images of Jupiter on my SPC900NC using prime focus and EP projection with 10mm EP and with my new IR blocking filter from SmartAstronomy on ebay.
Exposure control and colour were improved, although the seeing was better than the previous night. I think the exposure was 1/100s. About 200 frames were stacked using Registax. I didn't use the wavelets thingy because I was getting an artificial line through the disc.
At least it's starting to look a bit like Jupiter and less like a light bulb.
