I shot this on slide film back in 1999, through a 6 inch f/8 reflector which I built myself. I push-processed the film 1 stop. I can't remember the exposure info, but I do remember shooting about 40 shots before I finally got a decent one.
Io is the small red dot at lower left.

Nice -- it must be tough to shoot with film, if you have to throw away 39 shots out of 40 before getting a good image. It's a good thing digital sensors came along.
