Ghost of Jupiter

I thought I'd take advantage of the fact that my setup (10" f/10 SCT, 2540mm focal length, DSLR with very small pixels) lends itself best to small-scale imaging, and have a crack at a planetary. This is a stack of 10 180s subs, using a 2x Barlow with an UHC filter into the bargain.

Stacking was a problem; there were no background stars for Maxim DL or DSS to get a handle on. I eventually stacked them by hand in Photoshop, but I'm not sure how accurate I was.
