I don't have my filter wheel so I am just b&W. I like your work. It is very nice. Maybe some day mine will be worth sharing.
Right now I seem to see an awful lot of shimmering and dancing. I hope the 30 frames a second frame rate cleans some of that up. Alan do you have a raw video of any of your work - so I can see what a nice finished product looks like before processing?

Hi all,
Here is a finished montage of two images recorded with my 10" mak on the evening of August 7th:

A brief moment of good seeing with Jupiter at 30.5 degrees is combined with the start of an occultation of Europa by Io that began about 40 minutes later. I'm very happy to have Jupiter back above the power lines that ring my backyard!
best regards,
Alan
