Mike,

A nice (and highly detailed) image of the Alpine Valley. The rille down the middle of the valley is easily visible. Thanks for sharing.

Why I Might just Stick with a CCD...

Maurizio,

An excellent image of the Alpine Vally region of the Moon. You have captured much detail over this region. The E-258 is a great high resolution instrument. I look forward to your future images.

Thank you all for the kind compliments on my latest observation of Jupiter and it's satellites. The amount of detail present was difficult to render but I am happy with the final product. I look forward to your future observations as well.

Jupiter 02/10

Posted By Carlos E. Hernandez

Chris,

An excellent image of Jupiter showing much detail preceding the Great Red Spot (GRS). The projection along the southern border of the SEB, preceding the GRS, is very interesting. The "eye" (oval) north of the GRS is also interesting. Thank you for sharing this image with us all.

Sol,

Thank you for the compliment on my latest observation of Saturn. I too found the southern border of the SEB to be very interesting. I normally find such features while observing Jupiter, but not over Saturn. I look forward to your observations as well.

Jupiter 2/13 Perfect Conditions

Posted By Carlos E. Hernandez

Chris,

A spectacular and highly detailed image of Jupiter! The Great Red Spot (GRS) shows much detail. The rift systems within the North Equatorial Belt (NEB) and South Equatorial Belt (SEB) are very complex. Several white ovals are noted over the South Temperate Zone (STZ). The polar regions exhibit detail as well. Thank you for sharing it with us all.

Sol,

A beautiful and very accurate observation of Saturn. The globe and ring details appear as in my own observations of the planet. The inclusion of Enceladus looks interesting. Thank you for sharing it with us all.

Russell and Thomas,

Thank you for the compliments on my solar observation. I was impressed with the prominence depicted and I had to render it. I am glad that my observation captures the beauty of this amazing phenomena of nature. The best of luck in your own observations.
