Hi there,

I can't seem to find any images of the Jupiter occultation visible from north eastern Australia anywhere in this forum.

Anne-Louise and I took this on June 16. We cobbled our Ixus 500 to the 4" Unitron (f15) and shot them on auto. 3x zoom and auto levels in Photoshop.

Cheers
Tony

Nice work firstlight! Great black sky on your 2x photo! The colors and contrast are superb. Even at 3x you made a good astrophoto. Look forward to seeing more from you all...see-ya

Thanks for the encouragement... I should have included the original images before photoshop changed the levels.
