Hi Johannes -

Breathtaking!
I could get lost in this image for a long time.

Thanks for sharing it.

Hi Wes -

That is a beautiful Jupiter with excellent color and processing.
I think it is very interesting and valuable to see carefully prepared images from all seeing conditions. Thanks for sharing this one with us.

Jupiter from May 8 and 9

Hi Paul -

The first one is especially good - and I think one of the best processed Jupiters from your 4".

Nice work!

Jupiter 5.6.05

Hi Frank -

A very nice result - a little off balance on the color, but very detailed. I had a CN212 for a while. I think it has good potential for planetary imaging in the cassegrain mode - although I never produced an image this good from mine!

Looking forward to seeing more.

Hi Paul -

Great work as always.

I would love to see you experiment with your lunar and solar image processing using a smaller pixel diameter setting for unsharp masking. I think the result might be have amore natural contrast level.
