Jupiter 27/12/14

[JB80 (Jarrod)]

This is my first real attempt at an RGB Jupiter with my ASI120mm, it's not too bad but it was very noisy so I have cleaned it up a bit. This is just straight with my 150mm scope and no barlow as the barlowed images were rubbish and the frame rate was a disappointing 11fps so I have just gone with the no barlow image on x1.5 drizzle.

I still have my Damian Peach DVD to watch too so hopefully there are some more tips I can add to the process later on but all in all I'd say this was a successful first rgb Jupiter.

Beautiful Jarrod
(and I love your Christmasified Avitar )

[JB80 (Jarrod)]

Thank you Allan on both counts.

For no Barlow and a relatively small aperture there is a lot of detail. Well done

I have to agree, there is quite a bit of detail. Nice result for 150mm scope

Looks lovely Jarrod good to see the king of planets back

[JB80 (Jarrod)]

Thanks all.

Just waiting for the next shot at it now.

Nice image. A bit smooth, but with many details. Which are those moons ?

[JB80 (Jarrod)]

Thanks Jorge, the smoothness is probably due to the noise reduction as there was a lot of noise. Don't think I made the best use of the histogram and should aim for more next time.

The moons were Europa and Io, Io is the one furthest out.
