Thanks everyone for your comments. This is my best Jupiter to date, though I also have some good Jupiters from last year. I am particularly happy with Saturn as it is much less noisy than my prior efforts and I can see hints of the Encke Gap, Crepe Ring and maybe also a moon in the top RH corner.
I have been slowly improving my capture setup and techniques over the past few years so I can be ready when those rare nights of great seeing coincide with when I have time to do this stuff. Many times I have been ready but conditions deteriorate. That is the roll of the dice, getting lucky when already set up and good to go.
This time I got lucky.
Though I guess luck does tend to favour the pre-planned and pre-pared !
