I see that you are taking your shots at 5am. Therefore is later and lower better than higher and earlier (jup cross meridian at around 3am) ?
Thanks Domenic

Hi Dom - if you check the UTC for this image it was taken at about 4am. Jove culminates before 3am now. I generally check the seeing forecast to decide when to image and if earlier in the night or later will be better.

Hi Bill - I'm afraid it's a bit more complicated than pushing a button. Although capturing and filter changes are automated, have to process each IR, R, G, B channel separately, then de-rotate and combine in JUPOS and process again in Photoshop. Some of the new colour cameras are reducing this workload but you would still need to do a reasonable amount of processing especially in poor seeing.
