Description

I was able to image Jupiter Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2022, from the west side of the Big Island at Waikoloa.  Seeing was generally good but variable and I had a constant battle with gusty winds that shook the C11 quite violently at times.  Here is the best capture of the night, a capture of 5000 frames using the C11, an Explore Scientific 2x Extender and and ASI462MC camera.  I stacked the best 2000 frames in AutoStakkert!3, sharpened in RegiStax6, some final tweaks in PhotoShop CC and then a final run back through RegiStax6 for the slightest touch of denoise on the #2 layer.  I made some additional captures of 8000 frames hoping to use more frames for noise reduction but the seeing wasn't cooperating.
