Hi,
Here are some pictures of Jupiter and Io in bad conditions.
I have made an animation but this time it's Ganymede disappearing behind Jupiter

Nice sequence Troy. Conditions can't have been too bad, you've still got quite a bit of detail there. Thanks for posting.

Cheers Guy's. At full scale the images look pretty ugly these have been scaled down a fair bit.
I have attached the animation of Io and shadow

I wish I had those bad conditions at my place. For me they look excellent.

Thanks guy's,
When I rate the seeing I use poor, bad, average, good and excellent as a guide. I then compare the nights data to past images obtained at the same site and going back about 3 years. When I look at some data from the past I think bad is the category it fits into, remember full size images not scaled down version.

Nice work Troy, reckon you should maybe reevaluate your estimation of the seeing though.
Even taking into account the resampling down of the images there is detail in them that just isn't there in bad seeing.
Top Stuff

Great stuff, any more info on equipment and processing techniques?
People keep bagging out SCTs, but the best planetary stuff I see tends to come from SCT owners.
