Colour image of Jupiter on 15 Mar 2016
Last night’s pic of Jupiter.
This is the first colour image I have taken so far with my new equipment. This image comprises three video exposures of Jupiter, using R,G and B filters for each video, and then stacking the frames and merging the 3 resulting images.
The seeing was not great and clouds came over before I could get a decent amount of frames recorded, but turned out not too badly anyway.
Taken with a ZWO ASI120MM camera attached to a Sky Watcher 200 PDS Explorer 8” mounted on a HEQ-5 motorised equatorial mount, using a 2x Barlow and ZWO LRGB filters.
