Description

Jupiter at opposition, May, 8th, 2018.
RGB animation, just to compare two approaches, heavy and light processing.
First time using the awesome new WinJupos "correction of the planetary moons" feature. Way to go Jupos team!
Anyway, some masking and hand weaving necessary, no moons were harmed during the movie production...
For the lignter version no masking was used at all, hence the washed out Jupiter face. 
Io complete transit, with the slender shadow almost disappearing. Amazing how fast! Just two and a half hours.
