ASTRO: Jupiter moon dance

Hi - Io and the GRS were in view together after twilight in Florida.
Our winds were still up, cutting significantly into the seeing. I
ramped up the frames per second to 30, exposures were 1/100, and I kept
the gain as low as possible.

- take care - Rod

First image (j1) was taken around 9:30pm EDT August 4; second (j2) about
one hour later. (Hopefully the NG will display them in order)

Did some tweaking with Photopaint to try and match up the color balance,
brightness and contrast but conditions were quite different between the
two times.

Nice shot Rod. I didn't even try Jupiter this year because it was so low.
