After playing around with some Junocam preprocessed images ("map projected", as they appear on the image processing website), I wanted to give a try starting from the raw images instead. The processing approach I used is summarized in this blog post

This particular image was inspired by the iconic one produced by Gerald Eichstädt and Seán Doran ( https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA22692 ). An impressive panorama of the North North Temperate Belt captured during Perijove 16 of the intricate cloud structures, where you can almost feel the volume of the atmospheric masses. What seems to be the top of the enormous structure at the right of the center is crowned by eye-catching clouds that look very much like ours here at the Earth. This framing is slightly wider than Eichstädt&Doran's version.

Revision C is a crop of the original raw image as downloaded from Junocam website, just for reference (see 'Link to TIFF/FITS section'; the raw is a PNG file, though).
'Original' revision is the processed version. 
Revision E has 4 times the original resolution and was produced by emsembling several superresolution AI models (please see the blog post above for full reference). 
'Final' revision has 2 times the original resolution, for faster preview here in astrobin.
