Jupiter at opposition

Had a great couple of hours last night with Jupiter. The great red spot was present, along with a transit of moon Europa. Seeing was the best in ages giving me the best still I've taken to date I think. As a bonus, I took a series of frames to make a video of the rotation but it's too big to attach here.

Details. --> 6000 frames (2000 each for RGB) ZWO ASI 183mm Pro, Deforked Meade LX90 ACF 8" F10 SCT on an HEQ5 Pro. Capture rate was about 100fps.
