Io's three card disappearing trick

About this image

This was the night my next door neighbour (due South of my observatory!) decided to throw a garden party complete with bright lights and guests milling in my arc of view for Jupiter and Saturn. Seeing looked steady but I could only pick off reasonable Jupiter images at intervals in the less party affected angles!
