    Here are some images of Jupiter a few days past opposition with the GRS and Io transit visible! I used the usual gear - Orion 180mm Mak, ASI 224MC, captured with Firecapture and processed in Registax 6:

    That is a beautiful image. I like the how the detail pops out better in the more agressive wavelets image, but find the less aggressive wavelets image smooth and more pleasing to the eye. The colors in your images of Jupiter are great.

    Thanks, Ed. Did you get in some good observing and/or imaging of the opposition?

    Really nice and I agree with Ed on the processing difference.
