Imaged Jupiter this morning, have 3 685nm IR data sets, 1 R & 1 RGB covering approx 60 minutes of Jupiter rotation.
Oval BA is well seen. I note a large dark feature on the Southern edge of the NEB impinging into the EZ. It is rotating into view from the F limb and is quite prominent, particularly in my final IR data at 18:53:06 UTC. There are several other small dark spots and white ovals resolved through this data run, more a comment on the low noise & high sensitivity of this camera rather than the quality of the seeing.
Have also attached an animation of the IR data.



Regards
Trevor
