Great image Ivan. I assume you used the efinder? If the skies were dark and clear, why the shorter 2:45s images. Would you have been able to do them unguided?

I am curious as I might take my 140 to a real dark remote site and no longer have an stv (sigh). I have done 2 minute images unguided at prime focus and they seem just fine.

I am sorry to be too nosy, but I am learning. I kind of miss the days of a single 40 minute image on E200 film which is what I did with my STV. No processing, ect. so that's where I need to learn. You took 18 images so what is meant by 8+8 combined?

Clear skies,
Kevin

Stunning images Anthony! I set out to image Jupiter for first time with a web cam, July 1, but the seeing really was just too poor that low in sky at 43 deg.

I was curious about the current features and nomenclature. On your June 25 image, the feature that is directly below GRS is Red Jr? or was that what was swallowed up as you show?

Clear skies,
Kevin
