Here my first jupiter webcam photo.
Very surprised with result compare to film photo.
Celestron 14, f/28 with 2.5x powermate, ToUcamPro, 400frames stacked among 650, 10im/s, Raiatea island.
I think (and I wish) the seeing can be better than this night.
Regards.

It is by far the best 1st I've ever seen!!
Very, very nice picture Leroi. Incredible the amount of details captured. Even on my LCD screen the picture looks very good (although I would need to tweak both brightnes and contrast to adjust it to my screen. Alas, I have no processing software in my office pc).
However, this is a kind of seeing I can only dream of here in Italy, so I do envy you a bit. Please keep on posting your results: it's going to be a real pleasure to see them.

Ciao

Incredible!

I hope you don't mind but I played around to brighten it up a bit... don't know if it is "better" but it looked a little dark on my screen...

Your image is among the very best I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing!
