Jupiter last night - 6th May in poor seeing

Seeing was very average last night. This was recorded in 3.5-4/10 seeing with Jupiter at an altitude of 52°, through high hazy cloud.

The seeing then started deteriorating and then improving again, but never got better than the 1st avi of the night (this one). Before it had a chance to improve any more, clouds came and spoiled the party. I was happy to go back to bed though, so I didn't mind too much.

It's my first image in over 2 weeks! Not a great comeback but glad to have caught something.

Recorded at 15fps (1/15s) due to terrible transparency (through high cloud), 40 seconds each channel. 350 frames from each channel stacked.

Thanks for looking.
