Not Great seeing but not bad given Jupiter's altitude.

TMB 8" F/9 @ F/45

That's a great shot Jim. Very nicely detailed. It has been difficult to get a good shot of Jupiter this year.

Great shot Jim!

How do you like the colour Skynyx cam? I'm thinking of getting one for Jupiter and Mars
Using the filter wheel on an altaz mount is too much of a pain!

That is an excellent image, Jim! I also really like the processing.
