About this image

Better than average seeing for this early Sunday morning. Targeted Jupiter in methane band in between my WL captures. Pleased with the sensitivity of the QHY camera, enabling me to get a better fps rate in the 30s. GRS is approaching the meridian and BA can just be seen setting on the preceding limb. Storm A2 is the most prominent and well defined in methane light. South polar hood obvious, North polar hood less so.
