That is the stacked image, local seeing was bad and was close to disappearing behind the neighbours roofline as well, so that is about as good as I could get.
We may get one more chance before the season is over, a few weeks away but on Sat. 26th Oct according to Astronomy 2019.

Europa shadow transit under way at sunset,
Io Shadow Ingress @ 19:13,
Europa Shadow Egress @ 20:00
Io Shadow Egress @ 21:26
Red Spot Meridian Transit @ 19:55

Jupiter will be getting lower to the horizon by the time the transits finish but clear skies and clear western vistas will be desirable for a good view, naturally. Even get a bonus with Mercury and Venus on show just after sunset and of course Saturn is still up there too.
