Jupiter from last night (21st May)

[StargeezerTim]

Here are another couple of efforts. The seeing wasn't as good as earlier in the week but I have got a couple I am OK with. 150 PDS with a Canon 550D in crop movie mode. I'm getting the hang of wavelets a bit more...

Nice pictures and detail, reminds me of when I saw Jupiter through a 10" newt in Arizona.

I was never able to get very good planetary photos, I tried but I never got the hang of it. (>_<)

Nice capture, some detail punching through there.

Thanks, the processing is the tricky bit. Here is a reprocess of one I did a few nights ago. An improvement!

Yes, definite improvement!

Very nice. Well done!  I got some images of Jupiter last night with my smaller 4SE Celestron mak, but seeing was very poor, and didn’t have enough aperture really to get any better detail. Still have some more files to work through, but don’t think I will improve what I got below. Pushing wavelets too high just increases the noise, so I kept them to a low setting. Will try again with my C8 as soon as I can again when I’m back home at the weekend. I did manage to capture the GRS though, and the dark vortex above it that shows in your excellent image too.

Nice Tim, Playing with the wavelets I think is a bit of an art. I still havent got it sussed yet!

Very nice Tim.  I'm debating whether to stay up later and try Jupiter again.

Me neither, I used the settings on this page...

I just tried the linked wavelets setting and followed the tutorial on the AS 6 website and got my most detailed result yet, I think!
