Jupiter & Saturn this morning Jan 15th

Imaged Jupiter & Saturn this morning in fair to poor seeing. My 685nm IR filter handles such conditions very well and that data resolves a significant level of detail. The GRS is going over the P limb while Oval BA is rotating into view from the F limb. The intricate detail in the wake of the GRS is well seen. The G and particularly the B channels suffered and detracted from the RGB data.

I also captured my first Saturn data for this apparition at 27 degrees alt and in flag waving type conditions although Autostakkert did a marvelous job in taming the conditions.

Regards
Trevor
