Here's the other part of my solar system pairing from last night, Neptune at f25 approx an hour before it transitted. I took 300 RGB frames with my 2.5x Powermate, exposure times 1.03sec, max gains, about 178-200 frames stacked per channel. It was different imaging the most 2 distant planets on the same night. I set my alarm to wake up for Jupiter, but I just couldn't do it. Next time, I'll just stay up the whole night. Seeing conditions were 4/5 the entire time, which is rare for my site

Regards,
Steve
