Here are two images from last night (Feb 16) and this morning (Feb 17)using my DGM Optics OA-3.6 off-axis newtonian and a Celestron Neximage camera @ f22. Not as nice as some of you guys who have more experience, as well as larger aperature and focal length to work with, but OK for a beginner perhaps.

Hi Rushby,

You have two nice images. Your Jupiter image looks good, I haven't had a chance to get a good one yet this season but I'm hoping for more luck in the coming months. Keep those images coming.

Clear skies,

Ed Roach
