Jupiter and Ganymede in good seeing

SPX350 F28.1, EQ6, Flea3, Astrodon filters.

Good seeing at last mostly before culmination, ganymede was nearby and got great detail when it was close to Jupiter before it went behind. Cloud came at 9pm and stayed till midnight. Could see lots of detail in the red channel on Jupiters surface so could imaging what 10/10 seeing would give, seeing last night was 7/10. I used my 2xPowermate and 2x C Ultima to give 9844mm similar to Quark's fl which worked well in last nights seeing.

Thanks, John.
