And this one... getting close to the limits of the scope. This time I put North at the top, I personally think it looks better this way up :-)

Very nice images bird, wish I had your setup and seeing conditions.

And yes, north DOES look better that way!

Agreed!
They are headscratchingly stunning images.
Well, Bird, how have things settled down after the
big discovery?

Still busy... lots of followup imaging and excitement from all the professionals as the debris field evolves, it's a rare (maybe unique) chance to see atmospheric circulation near Jupiters pole.

I'm off on 2 weeks leave in a couple of days... I'm sure I'll suffer terrible withdrawal!

cheers, Bird

Really nice images there Anthony! Some of the best "amateur" images I have ever seen:)
Tonight I was showing my parents Jupiter through an 8 inch scope, they thought it was amazing. I look forward to the day I can attempt images any way near as good as these
