Hello All,
I could not get to sleep so I went outside about 12:30 AM. Glad I did. The seeing was pretty good but there was a thick haze, that was getting worse, so I had to drop down from a 3X barlow to a 2.5X Powermate. FYI.

Neat image Jim. I love the deep colors of Jupiter's boring side! I feel for you about the haze. I had the same problem last night.
