Default Jupiter & Io Shadow Transit
After two weeks of clouds and thick haze, I finally decided to take another shot at Jupiter, even though the haze required X4 the length of exposure (1/4 of the frame rate too). I've attached a reduced jpeg of Io, its shadow, and Jupiter, w/ the GRS. Seeing was fair, transparency was bad.

Lovely shot considering our atmospheric conditions. Speaking of which, you have captured a beautiful example of counter directional coriolis winds at the equator.
