Just after sunset there was some good seeing for a while on Jupiter, despite the low altitude and hordes of mozzies...

cheers, Bird

Nice shot Anthony! The colour seems (IMHO) to be a bit off though with light blue dominating the lighter clouds?

Incredible detail considering it's so late in the season!

Beautiful work.

Very well done, as usual Anthony.

It sure is becoming a challenge to get reasonable data so early, more or less in twilight.

What a beautifully detailed image this is. The red spots in the NEB are crisp as and the small red spots in the NNTrZ are really well defined.

To be able to produce images with this sort of definition when conditions are far from ideal is IMHO a great achievement. You really do set the bar very high.

Very nice detailed image for so late in the Jupiter season.

Thanks for the view Anthony.
