Description

This is the best image from over an hour of data collected a week after the Jovian opposition. I also did an animation, which you can check out at http://www.astrobin.com/296052/

I processed the moons separately and then layered in Gimp. It doubles the processing time, but I think it was worth the effort. This is the first night that I managed to obtain surface details on the moons, and you rarely see that in an 8" scope.
