Jupiter in poor seeing

22nd Sepember the GRS was nicely positioned when Jupiter was between a neighbour's chimney and trees. 180 Mak, ADC, AS1224 processed in AS, PS and then derotated.

Two nights before (20th), I tried to capture the Io and shadow transit but the seeing was so poor, I've only used some of the AVIs - hence the jerky animation. In clear moments though, the shadow was pin sharp and Io itself could be seen as a buff disk to the right of the shadow.

twice the aperture and a better climate would definitely help........

Nice result love the colours.  Chimneys love Jupiter this year. I have one it keeps hiding behind.
