Saturn Jupiter & Io + Mars 3rd July 2022

[si@nite]

Conditions were poor this morning but Saturn the most stable planet by far, transparency on Jupiter was bad but is to be expected at such low elevation with daylight fast approaching!

Had ago at Mars but had to take it through a gap in a bush to even get on it 😬 but still pleased with this mornings work!

Images taken with a C9 & skyris 236m camera at x1.5 amplification!

Given the low altitude you did well

Looking good Simon. All good captures. Banding on Saturn is excellent here. You did well. Jupiter showing some good detail. And its always good to get Mars even small and low. 

Its weird i find saturn the worst so far. After last year i expected better.  its a complete blow out so far. Not sure if that area of the sky is being affected by something it wasnt last year. But its real odd. Especially when you say what you just did Saturn the most stable by far. Jupiter for me is showing the most promise so far. Not Saturn. Maybe in time it will change ? 

Who ever said they can predict planetary imaging. 

Keep up the excellent work

They are a cracking set of images Simon. Both Saturn & Jupiter are looking very clean and well defined and capturing Mars is a bonus too. The season really is looking very promising indeed.
