Had some good seeing tonight, first time shooting Ganymede, two moons, and the GRS with a moon + shadow. Awesome setup.
Processed on the laptop at 3am. Couldn't wait to see what I got. Computer monitor gave up the ghost.

Well captured. It was quite the photo-opp for sure. I got 6 sets that needs processing now.

Thanks Brian,
I was thinking maybe I got some detail on it as well. I have a few longer FL shots from the last runs out of 24 RGB sets that look promising. I was shooting from the time Io appeared to the full transit of Ganymede's shadow. Should make for a cool animation when I get done.
Thanks Paul,
I'll keep a lookout for your shots, how was your seeing down south? Forecast looked good.

Thanks Tox,
It is amazing how dynamic the planets are. That is one thing I like about planetary vs deep space. Much more change in short time periods.
Cheers
