Jupiter April 11th, my best this season so far

Well although it was looking very typical to start off with, and I had almost given up by swinging for some low power imaging to the moon, the seeing improved and I quickly swung back to Jove to be rewarded with my best image so far this season.

What appears to be making the difference is that a chilled mirror to ambient using DP's experimental cooler delivers more frames of higher quality. Particularly important when re-sampling to increase image scale. So for this image, 500 frames in R,G,B have been used, which is around 40% of the total captured.

Hope others got out there this morning.

John.
