I bounced between Jupiter and Saturn waiting for the red spot to rotate around.
By the time it started to show Jupiter was dropping almost into the trees to me East.
This is earlier in the session while Jupiter was still fairly high.

Nicely done Jim. Good catch on the moon as well.

Thank you very much.
If you have a chance, there are a couple of transits tonight.

This is for my time zone, adjust accordingly.

Thanks Jim. If the skies are clear...not looking promising at the moment...I'll try to catch the transit. [quote=Albuqshutterbug]Thank you very much.

Planning is one of the things I like about Stellarium.
I can run the clock forward or backward to find the best time to be on something.
Like when the GRS will be coming around.
(Helps me plan around power poles and wires transitioning, too.
)
That is, when I can see the sky through the forest... of course. LOL!
You have planetary imaging figured out, great job!
