Picture of Jupiter

[blakeyboy]

I took this pic- got a T adapter so my telescope became my cheap camera's lens.

No tracking, quick snap, no stacking software to build up the image.

Even though it's not up to the standards you see a lot, I'm chuffed I caught the fact that Jupiter is striped!

No moons visible- had to stop it right down...

There is a once in a lifetime configuration of planets this evening and along with it aload of clouds insuring we never see it
