Jupiter from Melbourne this week

[John K]

Hi everyone,

Some good seeing this week in Melbourne - it did not last though! But given Melbourne weather anything is possible.

In hindsight should have also woken up later in the morning to shoot Mars - so lets see what happens in the coming weeks with the seeing conditions.

Clear skies.

Now , that's a Jupiter image to be proud of, makes most of our humble efforts pale in comparison, excellent stuff. Look forward to seeing more, Mars included.

[Camelopardalis (Dunk)]

Great shot John

Although it looks like it could do with pulling the green back a touch (but it could be my screen...)

[DavidU (Dave)]

Thats a cracking image !

[Stefan Buda]

Well done.

I was out earlier that evening attempting some lunar imaging. The seeing was not too bad for the R channel but quite poor for the B. The Moon did not get as high as Jupiter though.
