Hi all
Seeing was good, peaking with a solid 7/10 just before 6am on Tuesday morning. This is the best image from the session, when Jupiter was at 42deg altitude.
Taken at 30fps, 55 s each channel. Though at 1/30s exposure the histogram is just over half full in R and G, and at about half in B. I really need it to get brighter and higher, or have a bigger mirror, more sensitive camera, etc :) The lack of dynamic range with a slightly underexposed histogram makes processing much more difficult.
Approx 500 frames stacked for each channel.
Thanks for looking.
