Jupiter in good seeing, July 23

[bird]

It was nice to find some good seeing this morning - Oval BA is setting at lower right. The moon shadow is from Europa, I haven't realigned it to get rid of the motion blur.

cheers, Bird

Wow Anthony, that is a truly awesome image. Wow. Yep words fail.

Smooth as a baby's........
You really have this imaging thing nailed
Awesome.

Hmmm? why do you watch and image this planet so much Antonio :question:...are you expecting an impact any minute or something :rolleyes: :screwy:

Looks strange with one equatorial belt missing but lovely and detailed none the less :thumbsup:

Mike :D

[bird]

yeah, you gotta be nuts to keep doing this... especially when 99% of the time the seeing is awful... call me a masochist :-)

Top class image Anthony, thanks for the view. All the best.

[michaellxv]

Fantastic image. Thanks.

[bird]

Thanks guys, here's another image from a bit later...

cheers, Bird

Another top class image Anthony. I see this planetary imaging a bit like fishing, some get the big ones and others look on and dream. I am still dreaming.

Awesome Jupiter, thanks for sharing!

Amazing shots Anthony, great work! :)

[rick01]

Wow, just out of words :o.

[Paul Haese]

God sake, you must live in a seeing mecca! A superb image and nicely processed. Wanting some of that seeing too.

[bird]

Thanks again, wait until I find some really good seeing :-) Hopefully there's some over in WA, we leave on our 5200km trek on Thursday this week...

Rob I'm using a 14.5" f/5 newtonian that has a custom Royce mirror, a 5x TV powermate and a Flea3 mono camera.

cheers, Bird

[michaellxv]

Wow, they just keep getting better.

[bird]

I've posted an animation into another thread...

[bird]

Thanks Trev & Gary, looking forward to it!

I can not imagine how you get this. Neither in my best moments of seeing I can take a picture remotely similar. It's definitely magic.

[TechnoBill]

Truly magnificent.:eyepop:
I have only ever tried to image it once, it had marginally more surface detail than Europa in your image :rolleyes:
I have been practicing a lot on the sun so it might be time to dust of the 12" and give jupiter a go again. You have inspired me.

Brilliant Bird... No real way to describe the class you display with these images. That animation on the other thread is also in a class of it's own.
