Taken in 4/5 seeing, C11 Flea3 RGB f27 at 45fps, best 2000 frames per channel stacked in Reg. I was able to cool my scope and observatory down early enough to take some decent data for a change. I was imaging with my 20" box fan hanging from a bunge cord in the doorway which seemed to help control the temperature improving the image quality. That night I was able to view Jupiter at 572x! The SEB outbreak resembles a "hand holding a gun" in the middle right of the globe

Regards,
Steve

Steve,

Wow! That is really nice and definitely shows the OB detail.

Fine shot Steve! Nice structure in the SEB outbreak.

I was imaging Jupiter earlier that evening, but took a break after the GRS neared the limb to get some Uranus video in the good seeing. After I finished up with Uranus I tried Jupiter again, but the seeing was starting to deteriorate back to more typical New England @#%@* just as I started to record. No outbreak image for me yet. Oh well...
