Jupiter and Venus 23rd March (Daylight) + Video

Hi Everyone,

Finally the sky clears in Brisbane and not one to miss an opportunity I had a look for Jupiter, using Venus as a guide.

This is a quick processing of Jupiter at 4:50pm (0650UT) this afternoon. Visible are Ganymede (bottom) and Io (top) as well as the trailing edge of the Great Red Spot.

Canon EOS 600D in HD video crop mode, 5x Powermate, 12" SkyWatcher Goto Dobsonian manually tracked.

Also, Venus at 4:59pm

Thanks for looking,

Tom
