3rd April Jupiter

Hi all,

the seeing is on the improve here, with Jupiter looking very steady and just a bit of thin cloud comming and going. The conditions were 6-7/10, That is my guess, as I am usually having 4/10 at the best and anything above that is all new to me.

This image is with small extention tube and 2x barlow.

considering the regular conditions you usually have - it is even more valuable!
may seeing improve for the next run!

Lately, 4/10 seeing is all I'm getting when it is clear enough to view.

It's a good looking shot for the seeing level. Hope you and I can both get a night of 8/10+ seeing soon.
