Jupiter Imaging Session - May 8, 2016

The sky this early evening is clear and I force myself to do some planetary imaging which i plan top image Jupiter , Mars and Saturn this evening. I'm not a real planetary imager but as a novice, I'm eager to try some planetary imaging once in a while. For this early evening, I started to image the gas giant Jupiter which is already high in the early evening and I was able to cool down my scope as well. Seeing condition is fair and I was able to see the Great Red Spot (GRS) nearing the limb. A great feeling indeed to be able to image the great planet Jupiter once again :)RGB image taken using Meade 8" f/10 SCT with ZWO ASI120MM webcam with 2x barlow lens.
