This has been one horrible summer for astrophotography in SW florida. This is only my second shot of Jupiter . One of the few benefits of astrophotography in SW Florida is the steady atmosphere. Even with the Saharan dust and some high clouds this came out pretty good because of excellent seeing. This was taken with the Celestron 9.25 and the ASI 224mc camera. I didn't have time to remove the 0.7 reducer because the redspot was just about to turn the corner but I added a 2.5 extender which took me to 4100mm f/18

This is so cool Chuck! Hopefully you can start getting less clouds and can capture more astrophotography as we miss your work.

I really like the detail and especially getting a moon in front of it. That's so amazing, and so totally different then anything I recall seeing.

Thanks, I hopefully only have another month of cloudy nights.
