Good on ya Anthony, looks very nice.

Should your date be, 24th instead of the 23rd?

I shot Jupiter yesterday morning on the 23rd and got the GRS.

Beautiful image, Anthony. Really cracking along now.

Lester - it's the 23rd in UT.

Yeah, it's confusing, but I decided a while back to always refer to the time in UT, so images taken in the mornings are always labelled a day out for us :-)

cheers, Bird
