About this image

A consolation prize for missing out with cloud and rain to most of the auroral activity on nights of 19th-20th and 20th-21st when the skies finally cleared for a while before the rains returned was to capture this image of Jupiter despite it being so far to the West that it was above the apex of my house from the Observatory. At least Jupiter is at a better than usual height this year!
