Thumbs up Opening my Jupiter season account

Despite the seeing I decided to pull an all-nighter.

Left the gear set up for Jupiter after imaging Saturn earlier in the night.

Must have been out capturing around the same time as Dave Pretorius, although his image appears taken perhaps 30-60 minutes later than mine, judging by the movement of the STrD-1 disturbance toward the planet's limb.

Pretty happy with this one, despite the blurriness.

Happy to have captured a few white spots in the south polar region, as well as red jnr and the STrD-1 disturbance itself. There's also an interesting red spot just below and to the right of the STrD-1. Chris Go also captured this on the 15th of Feb.

The moon in the image is Callisto.

Quite a few more AVIs to work through
