[Pete Presland]

Jupiter from 6th Nov in reasonable seeing conditions.

120s SER file, stacked 5% in A/S3, balanced, aligned, sharpened in REG6. resized in CS2.

Great to see the Great Red Spot on view as well and the Moon Io to the right.

C9.25, ASI224mc, ADC, X1.8 Barlow.

Nice image with the GRS prominent. We need more good nights as it has been terrible so far.

Nicely captured Pete. 5% stack sounds a bit stingy in reasonable conditions? 🙂

That's lovely Pete and good to see a traditional south up view again

I did a generous 10% stack as well 🙂 but decide to process the 5% first. Maybe be worth trying 20% as well

That was mentioned on twitter as well 🙂

John Rogers always wanted south up in the past, so I kept submittingbthem that way until lst year when he said most were now submitting north up so I switched everything. Then Richard McKim told me he still prefers south up, but I'd already sent everything north up. I'm not cahnging back again as most non astronomers thought my south up views of Jupiter looked weird....

[Pete Presland]

I usually do north up views, i completely forgot to flip the image. If it  the GRS was not in view i probably would not think about it, unless derotating in WinJupos

Nice capture Pete. For what its worth I mostly prefer south up

20% stack and 150% resize.

Allowed me to push the data a little more i think.

Looking good! As a northerner I'm also happier with the orientation 😉
