I rough Jupiter from last night. Not great seeing and some focus/movement issues but was good  to get out.

 

200p  on HEQ5 with QHY5L-ll mono. 

 

Visually saw more colour than I have in the past. Some browns  in the bands and I am pretty sure I have the great red spot and managed to see some colour  in it! Think the flocking helped with that... Thanks to Baz!

 

Kind of a shame this is only black and white but hey ho...

Thanks for sharing Steve ?

Quite a bit of detail in there, despite the poor seeing!

 

But it must have felt good to get out for a session...

I very briefly considered it, but I didn't want pneumonia on top of my man-flu! :brr: :blush:

Thanks. Re. The seeing to be fair I think the main problems were focus and the stability of the surface I was on.... Was partly testing a longer usb lead. Which worked.
