Jupiter from the evening of 9th September 2020, just outside Preston.

Aligned and stacked 17% of the best frames from a 7 minute movie with AS!3 then Wavelets applied in Registax. Taken with SW SkyMax 127mm and Canon 600D with digital zoom on a SW EQ5 mount. This is my first time using Registax after stacking in AS!3 then further and final level adjustments made in Photoshop. It is a significant improvement on my previous attempts of this target, only the sharpness of the resulting image is proving elusive. The movie was extremely noisy perhaps due in part to atmospheric conditions and the low altitude.

Acquisition: 7 minutes 20 second movie at ISO 600, 1920 x 1080 pixels.
