Hi everyone, thought I'd share a couple of Jupiters I captured last night under decent seeing conditions. All captured with the help of my trusty C8 and DMK combo. Hope you guys like.

Thanks Dave. I was pretty lucky how good the conditions were. Hopefully if the clouds lift later it should be a good night for imaging.

Great detail on Jupiter.
Slight colour issue with the moons. I presume this is from the motion of the moons as the exposures were gathered through the 3 filters. Interesting to see how much they can move in such a short period of time.

Excellent work there James. Great detail visible.

Michael, Those moons do move quickly alright. I generally notice the movement difference between RG and B frames, even using 1 minute of exposures per colour channel.

Cheers for the comments Steve and Michael. It's amazing how fast the moons move alright. My exposures were only 1 minute per channel.
