Jupiter .... my first attempt

After more that a decade "thinking about it", I finally picked up some entry-level planetary gear and had a crack at Jupiter. I'm a bit surprised at how good the seeing was in the wee-hours a couple of weeks back, and how much fun this is!
Nothing to brag about, but have enjoyed learning the process.

120mm refractor
5x PowerMate (overall FL 4.2m)
ZWO 290mm guide camera
60s SharpCap RGB captures @10msec
... then lots of reading to learn AutoStakkert, WinJUPOS, and RegiStax.

Thanks for looking .... and any tips welcome.
