That' a good set of images considering the conditions. Lots of detail visible like the row of white ovals. Peter

Interesting cassegrain choice. I always thought you were a Newtonian fan. At least you will not need to worry about dew on a corrector plate like a SCT. May be a good choice, small and compact for F/12. Peter

Poor seeing conditions, but interesting moon activity. The 23rd Nov image (tonight) shows Ganymede starting a transit on the lhs, Io and Callisto on the rhs and Io's shadow beginning to leave Jupiter's disk. The 22nd Nov image shows the GRS coming around the limb. Peter

Jupiter shadow transit animation - 23rd November 2021
astroman001 replied to lukebl's topic in Imaging - Planetary
Excellent, lovely animation and detail. Can you send some of that nice seeing down here. I imaged the moons as well this evening, see separate post, but the seeing was awful. Peter -
Great results for a 100mm scope. Well done. Peter
-
Well done for trying. The seeing started off quite nicely in July/August, but since mid September it has been awful. I am also waiting until next year now. Might have a go at Uranus and Neptune though. Peter
-
I would agree, Barlow, ADC, filter, camera as you suggest. Peter

Nice job Neil. The seeing has been awful recently, so well done for getting a good level of detail. Good colour balance. Peter
-
Great animation, looks like you had some moments of good seeing, I saw oval BA pop out at one point. Peter
-
Thanks Neil, seeing was cooperative and everything worked well. Usually this only happens when the other side of Jupiter is visible ! Peter

Here are images of Jupiter from 12th and 15th September. Better seeing on the 15th allowing some nice detail to be captured in and around the GRS. Peter

Some nice detail captured Martyn. Conditions have not been great recently, so well done. Peter

Thank you for the kind comments
-
Excellent work. great image and animation. Lots of detail and moon action. Peter
-
It has taken me a while to get around to processing this image. The 3rd Sept was the last half decent seeing from my location. GRS nicely presented and some distinctive brown barges above the NEB. Peter
-
Conditions poor here as well. Amazed you got good resolution on the moons when Jupiter was not so good. Peter
-
Some great images in the thread, well done. No luck here since 3rd Sept. Seeing has been really awful, can't even focus at times. Peter
-
Still a nice set of images. Agree, very few nights with clear decent seeing this year. Best regards Peter
-
Great images. You had much better seeing than down here. It's been awful since 3rd Sept. Peter

JuJpiter with Io and Shadow in transit 28th August 2021
astroman001 replied to astroman001's topic in Imaging - Planetary
Hi Neil, thanks, I waited for Jupiter to be favorably located at a reasonable hour, ie before 1-2am. It's too tiring these days to be up imaging at 3am. Peter -
JuJpiter with Io and Shadow in transit 28th August 2021

Hi Craig, thanks. It was totally cloudy in Sussex unfortunately. Peter -
Good work. I also notice that after up-loading images to SGL, the brightness is increased. I have raised it before but I am told it's not possilbe. But I believe my eyes. Peter
-
Great detail, and nice processing. I believe it's real topography on Ganymede. Many amateurs have recorded such details so it's definitely possible. Peter
