Seems the ccd imaging forum was split and I didn't even realize it. I've been stuck in the solar system. I was wondering why no one was posting any DSO's. DUH

Jupiter 05/04 GRS on a Perfect Night!

Posted By Paul Maxson

Chris,

What a beautiful image!! I'm beginning to think that the C8 is the best compromise for planetary imaging. Enough aperature for great images, but not so large to be overly affected by cool down and seeing. Yet, I still think you will come up with that ultimate C11 image!!

Alan,

Wonderfully sharp for a quick preview, I'll bet the final product will be STUNNING!!

My C925 is on it's way back to Celestron...let's hope they fix it proper this time grin .

Ed,

Wonderful image, Io's shadow is nice and round. My seeing was not good last night, very windy. I got images about the same time as you and it will be interesting to compare when I get them processed.
