Jupiter Double shadow transit 3/1/15

There was a nice transit last night with Io and Europa's shadows close together, I missed the GRS as well but never mind.
Conditions must of been better than I figured they were considering the resulting stack. I honestly had trouble seeing any detail on screen so was pleasantly surprised with possibly my best Jupiter yet.
Still the x2 barlow didn't bring out as much detail so thefirst one is with 1.5 drizzle, I may try x3 drizzle later just to see. By the looks of it the Blue is slightly off focus, I have read that before from others so I guess next time I will adjust it a touch.
The last pic is the x2 barlow.

Taken with a 150mm f/8 newt and ASI120mm with Baader RGBs. Any tips as always would be appreciated.

Hi Jarrod,

Excellent catch. Thanks for sharing. I was planning to observe this double shadow transit, but was clouded out.

Cheers

Steve.

Thanks Steve, I forgot about it to be honest but was lucky to catch it as I was going out anyway.
