Jupiter really is proving to be a difficult target this year and the weather is not helping, anyway: -

Hi Chris,

I think that's a great Jupiter - Nice & sharp & good colouring - I like the 'green Festoons' I think that's what they are called....? Shame GRS wasn't in transit - LX90 is a great planetary scope.

Cheers, John.

PS - I agree Jupiter is tough this year - it's much lower in the sky then last year....
