Jupiter Oct 19th RGB plus my first IR effort
Hi All,
Last night I tried to IR image Jupiter for the first time. My new Astronomik Planetary IR Pro 807 filter sent by Don from Bintel arrived mid afternoon. The seeing for this session was only fare at 5 to 6 / 10.
I have posted an RGB and an IR image, Europa is to the East with it's shadow transiting the planet.
It is really interesting to blink between the RGB and IR images, they were taken at similar times. The 4 quite prominent barges in the SEB nearly disappear in the IR image. The white ovals in the STrZ appear similar in RGB and IR while the fine detail in the NEB and North Polar region seems better defined in IR.
Thanks for looking.
Regards
Trevor
