Jupiter just after a transit of Callisto. Taken just after midnight on March 18th, the shot shows from left to right the moons Europa, Io, and Callisto. Callisto's shadow can be seen on the top right side of Jupiter.

Thanks for the positive comments. Cloud prevented me from capturing more of the transit but I'm glad to have an image of the last part
