Some recent photos of Jupiter taken pretty quickly

I'm not using advanced photo or gathering techniques for these.

They were single images taken and most processed with a $6 iPad photo processing app.

There were taken through the c14 at HJRO and are examples of what can be done when your taking a quick image, with little advanced processing techniques.

Many photos of Jupiter that amateurs take now are of a better quality than these below, because they are using webcams and recording to AVI movie files. They then process these movie files using stacking software. Some use advanced cameras for astrophotography and take movies and stack them as well. The photos below were taken with a Digital SLR or my iphone.

One photo 3 below, was a still of the back of the Canon EOS T1i while it was attached to the c14 with a t mount and using live view at 10x. This would simulate a 20x Barlow lens on a 3911mm focal length (c14) lens setup.
