Jupiter 13 July 2020 - now with added Saturn!

[rustigsmed]

Hi all,

Have never really taken a good Jupiter was hoping to make that happen last night. Seeing was about a 5 or 6 out of 10. Some moments looked sharp in the blue channel but perhaps i need to sort through my videos more closely.

Interested to hear thoughts if i have over processed - i have only just started getting the hang of wavelets recently.

Also - included an original stack out of winjupos to see "pre-processed" RGB aligned version.

Taken from my 12" dob and qhy163m.

Looks great, I aspire to produce images like this!
I was out last night too and had even though it was clear out, my videos weren't great.

thanks jeff, yep the jetstream was a bit high. definitely hanging for some still conditions !

Your added Saturn was worth waiting for, it came up particularly well under average seeing conditions. Well processed with nice colours. Have to be happy with that outcome! :thumbsup:

I was out visually with the telescope that night, Jupiter looked half way between 1&2 but Saturn looks like a dead ringer. Nicely done :thumbsup:

Good effort Saturn looks the nicest. Likely the softness on Jupiter is largely due to seeing not processing

thanks Mick :thumbsup: yes i was surprised how well Saturn turned out considering Jups wasn't quite there. I also think i have my saturn and mars processing much more advanced than Jupiter.



Cheers Col :thumbsup: its always nice to take a visual look when they're so high in the sky atm.



Thanks for the confirmation on conditions. will be keeping an eye on conditions over the next few weeks. :thumbsup:

also have now thrown a gif in for the sake of it :lol:

well it's no APOD or Malin winner however, Tele Vue saw my Saturn image on Flickr and added it to their blog for their write up of Opposition - which is kind of nice (particular considering the seeing) :)
