I'm not very good at planetary photography, so here is my shot at Jupiter :)
20 second video, stacked in Registax 6.

Left image with no RGB adjustments and right image with.

Feedback and tips are appreciated as I'm new to planetary :)

Nice image :thumbsup:

It's good to see people getting into planetary imaging.

Tips:
Be very fussy with collimation and focusing.

Get on top of the thermal issues from your telescope.

Good going Sean :thumbsup:
Agree with Troy about collimation maybe somewhat out causing juup to be slightly oval shape, either that or possibly camera and/or barlows not sitting in flush/square, soughting this out and capturing a nice round juup will benefit in more detail aswell :thumbsup:
Definitely showing some banding details & grabbing the right colors with the aligned result also :thumbsup:
