Jupiter 22nd April - My return

[Anto]

So I'm returned finally on this beautyful forum after a little problem with a firewall.
Here is my best pic of Jupiter with 6/10 seeing and few dew.
I used my LX200GPS 14" with focal reducer f/6,3 + PowerMate 2,5x and I have had good contrasted image of the big planet, more than just an apo barlow2x (1,8x screwed on the DMK nose).

Regards, Antonello

Hey Anto, great to see you back!

That's a lovely image for only 26deg! Great detail and nicely processed. I'd probably add a bit of saturation but that's just personal preference.

I can't wait to see your work on Mars later this year!
