had a great night tonight. transparency and seeing were excellent. the view in the ep was mind blowing. i got some good avis too. i think this is my best result to date. i gotta do some tree trimming this weekend and get rid of that limb that interferes right when jove hits the meridian.

Hey solshaker - I can sure see some great detail in those images. The 150% holds up very well. I might just have to add an spc900nc to my wish list...along with dark skies.

thanks for the compliments, folks.
NAN: thats one great thing about planets. they pierce any lp like its not even there. definitely get an spc. great little cams for the buck.
Fox: yea youve got some very nice pics and those animations are great. i tried for a larger image scale in this thread here. while i liked the bigger scale im not so sure that its better than resizing with my equipment. i tried the same things i did in that thread when i took these shots, but for some reason the spc adapter kept wanting to shift in the barlow this time and i couldnt get a good focus. until i get more aperture i think ill just stick with what im doing and resize. i think my seeing can handle the mag on a consistent basis.
one day ill have those huge sharp pictures like rumples, iceman, and all the other masters that post here.
