Hello all! boy, did I feel rusty this morning... it has been a while for sure! 
My old & trusty Philips 675K webcam finally died, after 8+ years of good labor... (I just got a Philips SPC900, which I bought used, here on AMart)
Taken this morning (07/23/09, around 2:30-3:00am).
You'll see the famous GRS (Great Red Spot), multiple bands & storms, plus a Satellite shadow transit (Callisto's).
Equipment used was: 10" Meade LX-200GPS, 2x barlow (f/20) & a Philips SPC900 webcam. (1200 frames, stacked with Registax 5, and processed with Photoshop CS2)
Seeing conditions were very steady. (South Florida weather)
Image has been reduced to 75% of the original.
Hope you'll like it...
Clear skies to all! 8)
