Hi all,

I forgot that the seeing was quite good the evening I shot this. I am, needless to say, quite pleased by the result.

Hi Paul,

Terrific image with nice details. I hope you get a chance to try the new camera on Jupiter before the end of this apparition.

Clear skies,

Hi Paul,

I hope you don't mind. I ran your image through neat image. It seems to have very slightly sharpened your image as well as decreased the noise very slightly as well. Congratulation on such a superb image.

Clear skies,

Ed Roach

Alright Paul grin ! Great picture: it makes me wonder what you'll show us when you unwrap that Lumy you got there.
However, I was reading that you are waiting for a more powerful pc to start imaging: FORGET ABOUT IT MAN! With your diameter the conditions will never be that good that will allow to overflow the USB 2.0. So, IMHO, you can try even with what you have and the fun is anyhow guaranteed.

Ciao Paul

Thats an excellent shot for a now fast shrinking Jupiter. Oval BA and the SSTC ovals are very well defined.
