Jupiter animation from the 2nd April

[Garyh]

Hi folks,
Well I wanted to try this for sometime and the 2nd of April worked out good for my first attempt at a animation. Seeing was average but stayed rather cloud free for the duration of the avi`s As I remember the animation covers around 1-1/2hrs with the transit of Europa? and its shadow. A avi taken about every 5 minutes but I did miss out on one or two!
Taken with my humble 6" newt and Toucam Pro with 5X powermate.
Quiet happy with a first attempt.
Now next time I shall get two moons and the GRS all together :) that would be cool!...:D
cheers and CS
Gary

Nicely done, Gary! I love animations.

I'd prefer it sped up a bit (I use 1/10 or 1/15s between frames).

Lovely animation Gary. I know you probably went through hell to acquire the data, process the images and animate the sequence, so top stuff mate!

Cheers

Thank Mike, I must agree that its a little slow like me!..:)
cheers



Thanks Peter...:thumbsup:



Glad you didn`t mind it Tony!
Cs mate!



Thanks Clive for your kind comment!



Thanks Dennis!..:thumbsup:
You are not wrong there, it is all quiet time consuming. Just the final processing to be able to make the animated gif took me nearly 2 hrs
Plus all those hours that poor old pc chugged away stacking the Avi`s
cheers Gary



Thanks maksutover, give it a go! Long as you have plenty of disk space to capture and PS or similar and just download Microsoft GIF animator and you are on your way!
cheers and thanks....:thumbsup:
