:screwy:With Jupiter at the zenith at sunset and well past opposition. It's size is smaller by the day. Is imaging Jupiter almost come to the end for the year? I imaged a reasonable Jupiter on 28Aug. Since then I couldn't get any decent avi or was it bad seeing?

For me it's almost over because of trees. But for people with a clear west horizon they could probably go for another month or 2 imaging for an hour or so after sunset.

I haven't imaged Jupiter in a while so I hope I'm not too late. I have a fairly un-obstructed view to the West so you might hopefully see a couple more Jupiter images from me.

I'm thinking another month or so for me, by then it'll be getting too low in the west after sunset, probably behind the tree.

cheers, Bird
