The whole image is really a smorgasboard of fine structure and crisp detail.

Good to see you east coasters finally got some descent weather.
This result shows that it was worth the wait, indeed.

Thanks Trev, it's been a long time between drinks this season.

Did you get that vibrational issue sorted? I cannot seem to see any small ovals or storms in the image, just the larger structures.
I did get my mount serviced, but I don't think there was any vibrational issues in the end. I believe it's just been a shocking run of seeing.
When the seeing is good, the detail will come.

There's a fairly solid blue and red limb, though. Probably due to it being a 'quickie' ?

My, the GRS has certainly changed in colour.

Thanks for posting
Thanks Matt - yeh I didn't bother correcting for the limb in this quick process. I'll definitely fix it up when I put the final lot together.

Looking forward to more from you.
Thanks Lester, it was pretty boring until the NEB Upheaval just recently but now it's certainly very busy.

cheers, Bird
Same here.. Although the forecast is for at least 5 days of clear skies starting on Sunday. That'll be nice for a change!

Looking forward to the others too.

Thanks RB - the seeing really fluctuated during the session but hopefully there's enough good images for an animation. Should finish processing them today or tomorrow.

Your dedication to imaging is an inspiration to us all.

Good work again.

Thanks Geoff, Jupiter will get even bigger as it approaches opposition! It'll be huge!
