First derotated Jupiter images

Hi everyone,

I've made some more Jupiter images over the weekend and used a technique by modifiying the Registax project file after initial alignment and stacking to partially compensate for planet rotation. I used the same principle in 2003 for Mars, but somehow forgot to apply it on Jupiter as well. It's done with a C++ program that asks for the pixel shift during the recording of the AVI and for the time being works only with Registax V1.1 files. When recording for 150 s there is a slight improvement, especially in the white spots.

The first observation was made with 6/10 seeing:

and the second with 5/10 seeing:

of which I also made an animation:
