Jupiter 18 august

[Rigel003]

Taken last night about an hour apart. Good seeing early on that degraded as the evening wore on. 11" SCT, 2x barlow, 1" extension tube, SkyNyx 2.0 camera, 45 secs each of R G & B @ 34fps.

nice looking Joops, Graeme.

Damn you big aperture owners!! :D

Hey, I was imaging Joop last night too.

Still processing the AVI's though, got distracted by work...

Seeing was OK at the start, but deteriorated by about 10.30 here.

I also forgot to remove the 0.75 focal reducer for the first bit, makes your images look sharper, when they're smaller.

Alex, I've only got 10" (there must be a better way to phrase that!) @ f/8, but with a 3x barlow in, you can get all the focal length you need.

Cheers

Excellent result Graeme, lovely colour and detail.

Man, I would love a C11 for planetary imaging.

Well done.

Nice work Graeme, some fine detail visible and good colour.

The GRS has certainly changed with the large grey area either side of it.

Thanks for posting.
