Yet another Jup-fair seeing

Hello guys,

there was a seeing alert for last week end and somebody got lucky (Paolo has had 8-10 seeing conditions, so expect a wave of great stuff coming in).

Well I didn't! In my seaside town the currents from the sea spoiled everything and while others enjoyed perfect images, to me Jupiter looked as if it were painted (badly) on a black flag in strong winds :C

But I got lucky because I was out imaging on Thursday and the seeing cooperated, so I took some decent avis and this is one of the first out of the processing machine . It was an attempt to do LRGB with Paolo, but his video turned out bad, so you must be content with an L-less LRGB


All data are on the picture. I'm still not very happy with the 7000mm focal lenght as I feel my images are a bit undersampled. The day after these images I received a Zeiss barlow that I could push to 3X, but the seeing was bead so results are a bit depressing. I will be posting them soon anyhow to know your opinions.

Thanks for looking. As usual comments and criticisms are welcome.

Ciao

Nice catch Gianluca! 8)

It seems you got quite a bit of information in your shot, and good colors too, but for some odd reason I get the feeling your shot could be sharper than what it is... (as you say that the seeing cooperated that day...)

Question: I use Iris also for capturing, but then I stack using Registax. Do you like Iris better on that aspect? I haven't tried it for stacking.


Thank you for sharing, and keep'em coming!
