Thanks for your replies - I hope we all have an opportunity for a steady night or two with Jupiter this month.

Jupiter in the daytime

Posted By Alan Friedman

HI Luca -

That is a very handsomely processed image! I think you will find a short window of improved seeing around dawn also - perfect time to set the alarm and image Mars.

Hi Wes -

A very handsome image - the tones are perfect, especially the delicate details in the EZ.
I really envy your ability to use the color Lumenera camera on Jupiter - it is certainly producing some great results. Someday I hope to have a laptop with USB 2.0 and the software to operate one on my Mac!
