Jupiter + moons with Skywatcher 250PDS and ZWO ASI 120MC

[FaB-Bo-Peep]

A couple of shots of Jupiter along with 3 of it's moons from last night, (processed in slightly different ways). I managed to grab these before it disappeared behind the tree this time and it's safe to say they are my best so far. The raging storm that creates Jupiter’s great red spot has waned and turned the planet’s famous blemish to orange and although this is not always visible as the planet rotates, if you look closely at the outer edge, (at around the 11 o'clock position), you can just about see it before it disappears behind the planet.

They are the results of some very short AVI files, captured in ASI Capture and stacked in AS!S, (because registax6 would not load the files).

Scope is a Skywatcher 250PDS and camera is a ZWO ASI 120MC.
