Hello all.


After long time, I'm here again with some images :). Last night I had first decent seeing which allows me to capture my sharpest image of Jupiter of this season.
And one older image of Venus in false RGB I took a month ago. I used Baader CaK filter to take picture of high contrast (top) cloud layers and visual red filter as a luminance. It allows me to create a false RGB image.

Both images are taken with 8" Newton and QHY5 mono in projection behind 8 mm Tele-Vue plossl.

Cheers, Roman

So you just took one shot for each planet by using Afocal method?
Cheers

Hey, the GRS really stands out with the disappearance of that southern belt.

Thanks for the views Roman, anyway of bringing out the detail on Venus is good by me, and you have done it very well. Nice Jupiter also.

Hope to see more of your images soon.
