The Seeing was very bad and clouds were present but it was a lot of fun and a great show seeing Jupiter disappear in the Moon's dark limb. Here are some photos I took: HDR of two shots: Single shot, using clouds as a neutral filter In progress: I have more images in this gallery: http://www.luisargerich.com/january2013/h5306cbc4#h5306e3d8 Best, Luis Post Extras:       Traveler Pooh-Bah Reged: 08/19/07 Loc: The Netherlands Re: Occultation of Jupiter [Re: luigis]       #5639133 - 01/23/13 03:48 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Luis, These are great pictures of this exciting event.

Good job! Thank you! The Moon was very low for the occultation (about 10 degrees) so I have a lot of atmospheric dispersion in my photos. An ADC would have helped but I don't have one.

Out of curiosity, what camera and telescope did you use? Thanks much for sharing! Sorry I knew I was forgetting something. I used a Mak-Cass 5'' (1500mm) I added a 4x barlow for the occultation closeups. The camera was a 60Da.
