You must have read my mind!! I was going to post a msg to ask where you had gone, since we haven't seen you for so long and you've been greatly missed Alan.

Welcome back grin

Incredible imges Dominique! Solarmax 140!!! That must be awesome shocked These are the first images I see from that filter. Just hope you'll give us more grin

Which focal length were you using? How many images did you stack?

Jupiter with shadow in transit

Hi Alan,

with the planet at only 32 degrees this is an astonishing result! But I had no doubt when I clicked on your post that I was going to see something of value grin regardless of the low altitude.

Ciao Alan

PS here we had a time regression! It is snowing even at low altitude and we returned to winter temperatures after a week of 30+ degrees Celsius! Amazing weather :C

Gotcha!!

A new version: same sequence, but more images stacked (107 instead of 75) and I believe more detail in the 892 area. Different color tone too grin
