Io transit emergence in sequence

[Jupiterholic]

I was going to make a movie but having caught only 20 minutes of rotation through the clouds (would equal less than a second of footage) I decided to do a sequential pic instead. You can see the GRS starting to appear on the right in the last 3 or 4 pictures. Hope you guys like it.

Equipment used was a C-8 SGT XLT and a Philips SPC900NC

Very nice sequence!

That's really nice. Looks like you started work on this about an hour after I took the picture that is now my avatar!

yeah, it does doesn't it. I'd forgotten there was a transit that night. Got lucky but had a bit of a scramble to get shooting as soon as I saw the shadow, it seemed to be moving off the disk so fast. Your picture is really good by the way.

Lovely sequence.
