Overall I am pleased with it as my aim was to try and capture the moons. Europa, just to Jupiter's left, could have been brighter. Seeing and transparency were about 3/5. Taken around 2:00 AM MDT 5/4/06. Altitude was just over 27 degrees. Post Extras:       gazerjim Postmaster Reged: 02/12/04 Posts: 7708 Loc: About where I thought I was......

Quite a bit of detail on the disk; and the moons are a plus. Jim -------------------- Jim Fisher If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate. Henry J.

Contrast is a big problem with my 5" mak. My captures rarely look realistic. The actual view isn't bad, just the captures.
