Manuel shared his Jupiter image from Saturday night. Sent to me privately. Then he posted the link to the RASC TC group. Described the seeing conditions as "very poor." Nicole thought it "beautiful." Guy, surprised, ask "the conditions were bad?"
"Here is my first image of Jupiter captured under poor seeing conditions. The Great Red Spot seems to be getting back its [reddish] colour. Equipment. CGEM DX 9.25 [OTA.]. DFK 21AU04 Planetary camera. [2.5x] Televue Powermate. Registax 6. 600 frames of 1227 Corel Paint Pro2x."
He didn't mention the capture software... Or that he manually focused. That the mount was unguided. And without formal polar alignment.
I particularly like the eddies below the Great Red Spot.
