These images were recorded 24 minutes apart on Saturday evening August 30 with good seeing and excellent sky transparency. South is at the top and Jupiter rotates from right to left in about 9 hours 55 minutes. Good seeing really makes the difference when trying to image small details. This time I did image about a half hour before sunset and also at sunset, but the seeing was best about an hour after sunset which was when Jupiter was at its highest altitude. So super seeing before sunset hasn’t worked out. Jim Melka
