Description

I am no planetary imager as I don't have the ideal equipment, but here is my first take on Jupiter with my little 80mm scope with my new 2.5x Powermate.

Conditions were not ideal, as this was more of a test to get everything focused: Atmosphere was below Average on both Seeing and Transparency, and I was also shooting through branches as my southern view is not clear of trees.

The image is a stack of roughly 533 frames and edited in Photoshop.
