About this image

Seeing conditions steadied just before dawn as both Jupiter and Saturn rose high enough to image. Saturn was the steadiest I've had it so far this year and I was able to get a steady luminance as well as RGB and some IR data. This image is one LRGB sequence recombined with 50% of my best IR sequence.
