Wow, I saw it right away!! Very nice image! I'm planning, weather permitting, to get out about 11pm local time (0600UT) and see what I can image.

Just back from a trip I had the chance to put together the 5 different series from Jan 10, a night with good seeing.

The mosaic planning was very poor, but I have to live with this.

Image aquisition data and a bigger image size you find here:

My first 5-inch image of Jupiter

Posted By Paul Maxson
Ron,

Very excellent!! I think Jupiter lends itself to smaller aperatures better than any of the planets. Did you decrease contrast in Registax with the contrast slider? On Jupiter I usually have to slide it back to about 80% to get equatorial bands to show.

Interesting for Lumenera and Registax users!

Luca,

Cor is a huge believer in Png isn't he? I've discussed similar with him. Now if the more common (example, Astra Image) would support it. Of course, I could always move to MaximDL which sits on my hard drive waiting for me to learn... wink
