Jupiter, Io, and Europa 9-20-08

It's hard to get a good shot of Jupiter this year, from northern latitudes anyway. I had pretty steady skies the other night but it was still wavering where Jupiter was. I'm glad it starts to climb north again next year.

I also tried to shoot a few using a 2x barlow. But those were not to sharp. This is the best one.

Nice image. I sure now what you mean about the placement of Jupiter in the north. Do you find you need to correct for some dispersion?

Hi Andreas,

Your image is nice, and I wanted to see a little more detail, so I took the liberty of re-processing a little bit (see the attached.)

Regards, Jason H.
