Widefield Copernican rays!

Hi Mike -

Lovely! It's great to get to look through your 18" scope - even at prime focus. smile

The seeing was very bouncy here too last night - but I hate to pass up a clear saturday night so I filled up a hard drive with lunar and jupiter images anyway.

cheers-

Here is the full resolution view of these grande proms. The air was quite steady when this stream was captured.

Really nice! - my 640 x 480 chip is looking pretty small to me right now...

Jupiter 4/12 A Perfect Night!

Hi Chris -

I think this is the best image I have seen from you and one of the best Jupiters I have seen anywhere. The large image scale is appropriate for this level of detail and the processing is superb.

Congratulations!
