Here's a shot of Jupiter, taken Saturday morning (01h20 UT) with a 750mm (focal) reflector on an EQ5, 29 frames of 1/1600s @ ISO400.

As my remote was at home, these were shot by keeping the finger pressed on the button, so serious improvement is possible.

Planning on doing the same, in better conditions and with a nice 3x barlow, for a bit more size. I may attempt some satellite shadows when they cross in front... but that's level II.

South is up.

I see a speck of white above and to the left of the upper band - feature or processing artefact? You guys know of any major storms on Jupiter?

Very nice! I've been playing with Jupiter a bit lately, but don't have the tools to produce anything close to yours.
