Jupiter 24/7/19

Managed to gather some video of Jupiter on Tues evening with the Red Spot transiting. Wanted to get the transit of Io a little later but the seeing went to crap, was about 5/10 to start with but I gave up when it was more like looking at a fish underwater. Not ideal ( when is it ever ) but at least I got something usable.
What I still find amusing is how quickly Jupiter rotates, check how far the Red Spot has moved in the 20 mins. between image 1 & 2.
Details are , for those interested, best 600 of 4000 frame video processed in Registax with a little doctoring in Canon Zoombrowser for colour balance, saturation and contrast.
