Best images I've ever got of Jupiter & I'm so chuffed!!!!

[yelsac]

These images I've just processed from Jan 15th this year with mak127 & philips spc900

I'm so chuffed with the outcome.

I've got to thank JamesF for some great tips.

[JamesF]

They're looking very good. Well done.

I thought there must be a third storm around the GRS until I realised your images are left-to-right inverted

Both very nice images, the second one has loads of detail, well done.

[WaveSoarer]

Lovely images.

[stellawolf]

Both nice images well done

[yelsac]

Just managed to process the one inbetween the first two

Still learning but enjoying!

[Jim-a]

really glad you posted these - I've just posted a sketch I did from the same night which looks to be from about the same time as your second shot. http://stargazerslounge.com/topic/174974-jupiter-15th-jan/

Really good to be able to compare mine with a 'proper' pic and see how much I caught / missed

Wow, very nice shots!

Can I ask about your technique, and if you used any barlows?

Those maks give really good planetary views dont they, excellent.

Really really nice pics there, you will find it harder to top those!

[wookie1965]

Really nice images but my favorite is the one with the red spot looks really good.

Yeh I used a 2x barlow with an extention tube to make it around 3x (as I've been told, I'm still learning myself really)

Thanks!

I really want to improve my jupiter images, and kinda reached a point where something needs to be adjusted, so appreciate the feedback. I havent tried extension tubes but with my x2 skywatcher i'm probably getting the most out of it already and want to get a better barlow, but there are limits and not sure which type would fit my set-up for optimum magnification without overdoing it....

Anyone recommend a barlow for 200p and spc900?

Thanks again,

Regards

I have to say these are some of the most detailed images I've seen taken with a 127! Bravo Sir!

[bus_ter]

Great images from the little scope. The Mak has always produced great images for it's size, and I think you've raised it's profile even more.

[Ewan]

Nice detail in there.

I have the 200P and am yet to use my SPC900 but I have a 2x televue powermate and can't rate it highly enough Is a great addition to the setup visually so will have to wait and see about images. I got it s/h off ABS.

[catman161]

Stunning images-inspires me to get out there and get the webcam running. Really well done. I would be chuffed too

[SCOOB_81]

Wow, those are cracking shots! Great stuff. :-)

[Annamely]

Really nice, well done! Keep up the good work!

[michael.h.f.wilkinson]

Very nice images. You have every reason to be chuffed!

[sausages]

Great images, wish my own looked like this! (I think seeing these has answered a few of my own questions on a new thread I just started...)
