Jupiter Tonight
Conditions for imaging were reasonably good tonight. Here is a rather rapidly processed pic. I'll work on the others more intensively and see if I can improve on this effort. The image was captured with the 14 inch with a Lifecam. 2000 frames were captured and the best 20% were stacked and processed in Registax. Final processing was done in Photohop with multiple iterations of sharpening and noise reduction.
