Hi Alan,


I'd be interested in knowing some of your processing steps as that, as well

as your previous image, are some excellent final products!  How you stacked,

aligned, etc and any programs used other than Astro IIDC?


Thanks,

Jon

Hi -


Here's a Jupiter from last weekend - captured in good seeing but poor

tranparency which

made the image quite hard to process.

Even at 66ms exposure I needed heavy gain - the frames were noisy and low

in contrast.

Still, some good detail is seen. Jupiter is drifting upward in the sky -

now at 33 degrees

elevation as it passes the meridian - woo hoo!!


cheers-

Alan
