Nice image. I was trying to see the GRS visually but couldn't say I picked it out at 108x and got fogged out at 11:30. Come through in your image loud and clear though!

lovely image there mate!!! im looking at getting the same webcam as you for an xmas prezzy, how do you get a single image from all the web cam video then mate? do you simply pause the video and grab a screen print?

[bus_ter]

The basic process is to record a couple minutes of video, and then align and stack all the frames together. Finally apply some sharpening to bring out the detail. There's a program called Registax that does all of this. The webcam I use can't be bought new anymore, but there are other options available. The old xbox webcams can be bought for £5 and will get you started.

Thanks for the kind comments everyone. The conditions were really very good last night and this is probably my best Jupiter image so far.

Nice shot there and as you say, an improvement on your previous shots.

I used this image to make a comparison of different stack sizes through Registax here:

Original video is there too.
