Hi Everyone,

I was trolling through some of my old images and thought it might be interesting to post some personal bests from when I started taking pics of Jupiter with an afocal adapter up until recently when I took some with an ED 3x barlow and my toucam pro II.

I have posted these in chronological order from then till now, interesting to see how my processing and capture skills have improved. You can also see how much collimation has influenced the images too, finally, it looks like I have it sorted out once and for all. Not bad for a 5 inch scope hey?

Thanks for stopping by for a look.

Cheers

Chris

Hi Chris looks like things are getting better as time goes one. One thing about imaging is the learning curve we all go through. Keep it up and have fun doing it.

Thanks everyone,

Its quite interesting to see the timeline improvement. I am quite happy with the last few, especially the final one which may be my limit in resolution until aperture fever kicks in and I mortgage my soul to improve on this.

Thanks for all the kind words,

Chris
