More Jupiter 06/12 from Bembridge

[SnakeyJ]

The best of the morning, taken around 4am.    I've manually tweaked the stacks and wavelets and, probably over-, done the colour noise reduction in Image Analyzer.

Taken at 3600mm with the OO250, QHY5L-IIM, TV x3 barlow and Baader CCD filters.   Stacked around 1500/6000 frames per channel in AS!2, wavelets in R6, levels in PS and adaptive noise reduction in IA:

RGB:

LRGB:

L, R and G channels were pretty clean, but the seeing had dropped off for B.

Well done for getting out there Jake. I got up aswell but you managed far more than me! Conditions were dire, I couldn't be bothered to post anything!

very nice, i prefer the RGB image. the seeing wasnt great so they are an excellent effort.

Thanks Pete, it's good to get any chance at the moment! I suspect also that my collimation is out and holding these back a little, as I was seeing almost a coma like effect on the moons at the edge of the sensor. However, difficult to star test in mpderate seeing and too easy to mess things up more :-S

These are very nice Jake, super smooth though as you mention the colour noise reduction can bleach the colours a little. I tend to boost colour vibrance before using colour noise reduction.
