August Planets

[Saturnine (Jeff)]

Hi All
Although the weather and seeing has been less this month ( as with every other month this year ) I have managed to grab some avis' . Even though the images on the frames were bouncing around and shape shifting I managed to find enough good frames to make semi respectable finished images.
Skywatcher 180 mm Mak, ASI290mc, HEQ5. Best 2K of 10K vids.

Great images Jeff. You've got some nice details on Jupiter.

Great shots Jeff. Nice colour and detail. I see you captured 10k frames - how long was your capture video?
