Still playing with Jupiter and settings

I shot this a few nights ago with my usual setup of Celestron C8 and CGEM mount.
I imaged with the Celestron 236C CMOS at 640 X 480 and shutter speed of 1/125 seconds.
I ran a 2 minute video capture at 120 FPS and stacked 80% of 12,400 frames.
Registax6 for the wavelet clean up and Photoshop to adjust white balance and saturation.

The second shot is the same video but I only used 10% to stack.

More detail with the 80% but less junk in the 20%...

I wonder what it would do if you used the 80% as a luminance layer for the 10% color?

I'd gladly take either Jupiter!

I'm actually going to try shooting Jupiter again over the next week from a holiday spot far from the Rockies... We'll see how it goes!?

Sorry I don’t speak Geek 🤓
I have not tried to do or find how to do that yet.
Your welcome to see how well you can muck them up if you want.

Thank you Brian.
I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you.
Look forward to seeing your results.

Thank you very much Craig.
Hope to see some of your new moon shots. Are you going to the hill?
How’s the Mrs doing? Give her my regards please.
