Having a ball the last couple of nights here in Normandy. Very clear and quite dark (except for the moon). I seem to have got a lot of detail - I hope it's not a result of over application of the wavelets function.
Here's another Jupiter. Taken at 51deg altitiude (Jupiter, not me). LX90 8" UHTC deforked, SPC900NC unmodded, Moonfish 2" 2x ED Barlow, 2" Baader neodymium filter. Unguided as the guiding seems to introduce extra jitter which effectively make the seeing worse. Captured with SharpCap. Processed with AviStack 2.0.

Looking very nice Dunc - I would say your best to date - John.
Thanks John,
Next clear night should be Wednesday so now I seem to have the basics cracked I am going to try and get some captures at intervals of say 10 minutes (easy in SharpCap) so I can make the stacked images into an animation.
Excellent - love animations so look forward to seeing it - John
Very nice Duncan, was it with your LX?
Got the GRS too.
Carole

That's a great result Duncan with lots of tantalising detail coming out. I'm looking forward to seeing the movie...
