Mario,

An outstanding image of Jupiter showing much detail. The Great Red Spot (GRS) region is very interesting. Both the North and South Equatorial Belts (NEB and SEB) show complex detail. Several bright (white) ovals are noted over the South Temperate Zone (STZ). The satellites show some detail as well. Please keep up the excellent work.

Portugal is a very good site for planetary imaging as proven by my friend Antonio Cidadao.
