Desperate deep sky imager images some planets

[h0ughy]

and the cloud roll in once more after a perfect clear day. as i wipe the tears away i am posting this - i was that desperate to image something i did the moon, LOL jupiter and venus all in daylight.........


how sad is that:rofl:

127ed with the modded 40D from the doghouse observatory

[sheeny]

Nice and sharp Dave!

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to make them look like night!:D

Al.

[Shiraz]

They are really interesting images David, especially the EB on Jupiter - worth doing, but still very sad....

[h0ughy]

lol i will have a go

[h0ughy]

:sadeyes::lol:

[mswhin63]

They are really sharp wide angle.

[sheeny]

Bonus points if you can expose, by any processing trickery you can muster, the Galilean moons!:D

Al.

[Matt Wastell]

Some objects are better than none!?
Venus looks great!

[DavidU]

The pink nebula around Venus came up a treat !:D

[jjjnettie]

Venus is the pick of the bunch for me.
I won't mention what I got caught doing at the scope last night. Even sadder than planetary imaging.....:rolleyes: :astron:

[h0ughy]

oh you got me now - if its too lewd then please PM - you didnt, er, fall asleep at the eyepiece:rofl:

[h0ughy]

you must worship cloud:P

[h0ughy]

thanks Matt

[jjjnettie]

LOL I got busted doing visual. LOL Oh the shame of it all.

[ballaratdragons]

WOW! Holy Planets Batman, look at Venus!!!!!! :eyepop:

Excellent!

And you wonder why we call you the Houghmeister :lol:

[sheeny]

Well, here ya go Dave... your Jupiter x4 + levels. I believe you got the North Tropical Belt, and if I was a betting man I'd suggest you captured this between 13:45 AEDT and 15:45 AEDT today...

How'd I do?

:P

Al.

[h0ughy]

:eyepop: oh that is sad. i was contemplating that the other night - getting the 100mm binos out to look at the gaps between the clouds:help:

[StephenM]

I love that Venus shot Dave! Very cool.

Cheers,
Stephen

[h0ughy]

18:33 AEDST and you have to push very hard - io is to the bottom left i think? as for the other images - they are horrible

[h0ughy]

thanks Ken

[h0ughy]

yeah - sort of frames the shot:help: but i wished it wasnt there;)

[Jen]

:lol::lol: dont worry Dave not long now and it will be a full moon and the clouds will be gone again :lol::lol:
PS Jen passes Dave a tissue hehe :P

[ballaratdragons]

Oooo. that's cruel Jen.

True, but cruel! :P

[sheeny]

Oh of course! The pink clouds were a hint weren't they... so I messed up the orientation of the GRS:rolleyes::P...

Al.

[iceman]

Wow that Venus shot is stunning! Incredible sharp!

[iceman]

The venus image is now IOTW (http://www.iceinspace.com.au).

[h0ughy]

get outa here - there has got to be some other better images Mike:thanx:

[iceman]

There's heaps ;) But that appealed to me this morning. If I'd done the IOTW on Friday like I had planned, it wouldn't have ;)

[bartman]

GREAT shot David,
Almost could have put my shot of the moon sickle as a Venus shot......heheheheh http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/../vbiis/images/smilies/winking70.gif
just joking:rofl:
Bartman:thumbsup:

[h0ughy]

LOL once a planetary man always a planetary man:lol:;)

[Quark]

I reckon this might be really deep and meaningful Dave, it might be the planetary imager that is buried somewhere deep within trying to escape from the "DARK SIDE";)

Regards
Trevor

[h0ughy]

:rofl: thats the funniest thing i have seen all day:thumbsup:

[robz]

That shot of Jupiter looks better than what I see at the eye piece most of the time................damn that looks good!!!!!:thumbsup:

[spearo]

The Venus through pink clouds is Awesome!

[Octane]

+1 on the Venus image. Spectacular. Something we don't see too often.

Worthy of Image of the Week. Well done!
