Venus and Jupiter in mid afternoon

[shahgazer (Shah)]

I had a rare clear blue sky this afternoon, a good change from the normal tropical rain clouds and hazy sky.

So did a quick image on Venus, which was pretty easy and straight forward.

But Jupiter was kinda surprise. It was barely visible in the raw SER files from my IMG132e camera. Need to nudge the scope a bit, to see just a faint white smudge moving among the many many dust motes and the bright sky.

Even after stacking, it was a bit tricky to see.

More post-processing and even managed to get the bands.

Interesting stuff.

Individual photo of them can be found at my flickr page https://www.flickr.com/photos/shahgazer/

Thanks
