Jupiter 02/05/2015 A couple of photos of Jupiter...one with the Great Red Spot
Pretty spiffy! Do you know which moon that is? The GRS is clearly seen. What are the details on the final pics? On Thu, Feb 5, 2015 at 11:48 PM, Dave Gary <davegary@me.com> wrote:

Chuck, Thanks for the nice comment. I’m going to run one of my planetarium programs this morning and figure out which Galilean moons were where when I took the shots last night. I sent those photos from my driveway and it was too cold (I guess I’m getting old, it wasn’t that cold) to go into any more detail or do any labeling. It was past my bedtime, too. I was using my 10-inch LX200 Classic scope, the SBIG ST-i planetary imager and auto-guider and then acquiring and processing the data through ST-i stacker. I really like that program. It does everything for you. Very nifty for people like me. The only drawback is the ST-i is the only camera that can supply data to the application. I’d love an easy-to-use application such as this for my 8300C. Maybe now that SBIG is part of Diffraction Limited, the people who code Maxim DL, there may be some new, smaller applications to employ for other SBIG cameras along the lines of ST-i stacker. Or you just shell out $600 for the flagship application, which I’m not willing to do. I’ll stick with Nebulosity ($80) for my other imaging needs for now. Dave

Thanks, Richard. Hopefully, the clouds will back off before I have to go back to work. Not likely, though. Dave
These views are wonderful. They make me think of Don Parker, a wonderful planet photographer of about 15-20 years ago. Your images are better than his and he was the top of the game at the time. Formal request that you let me use them at the next general meeting:) Joan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Gary" <davegary@me.com> To: "Richard Tenney" <retenney@yahoo.com>, "Utah Astronomy" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Friday, February 6, 2015 12:21:57 PM Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Jupiter 02/05/2015 A couple of photos of Jupiter...one with the Great Red Spot Thanks, Richard.
