Very good seeing actually. Very glad I caught some details on Ganymede. My best image so far.

Lahk bi bil še tak boljši ...

Thanks to all! I think I can get even better image with my 8'' Newton, the seeing was not perfect yesterday. But it's really fun pushing the limit of the telescope.

I almost bought the larger SPX, good to see you're making good use of yours! That's wonderful.
