A first crack at Jupiter

While not having the aperture for doing planets in any detail I did want to see what I could get through an 8" f4 Newtonian, 4x Powermate, ASI462MM, and Astrodon 1.25" filters. The filters don't seem to be great (get a rather pink/maroon jupiter) but was able to combine the channels into something that seemed more correct in regard to colour. Have begun learning all the various softwares so bound to be making errors here too.

Taken November 18th around 8:03-8:08pm with Io and Europa in view. Not sure how to estimate good or bad seeing as yet. Got around 4000 frames in each channel (rougly 100fps for 40s) and repeated each RG and B capture 3 times (later derotated in winJULPOS) using the Sharpcap solar system sequencer.
