I tried Jupiter on my one clear night last week. It was pretty low in the sky, so the image was pretty shaky, but the stack turned out OK. I used the Lucy-Richardson deconvolution filter, which seemed to bring out some detail, but also created some odd artifacts around the perimeter of the disk. Oh well, it is the best I could do under the circumstances.
Cheers,
Tyler

Hi Tyler,

Good image, with Jupiter so low (and it only going to get lower in the coming years) it's hard to get an excellent image , you did a very good job on this one.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins
