Another attempt at Jupiter last night. First set of images was using my 2x Barlow lens nested with another for 4x magnification. It's interesting to me that Jupiter doesn't seem to handle magnification real well. I've noticed this at the eyepiece as well. Some of the most stunning images are with lower magnification with Jupiter accompanied by its moons. Absolutely stunning!

When I see two lines like that all I can think to say is ... Jupiter is pregnant! I wonder when you can expect the arrival of the next moon? :) Seriously though it is a great photo!
