This is my first attempt at imaging Jupiter this apparition. Seeing was, predictably, not the best but I managed this image. Some nice detail coming through. The planet is presently located in Taurus.
Jupiter is not at opposition until the 7th December so hopefully there will be more opportunities to capture more images.
Notable is the darkening of the right-hand (preceding) limb an indication that the planet is before opposition.
Imaged from the garden in the early hours of 23rd October. I used my Celestron C11 SCT with an Explore Scientific focal extender and a ZWO 224MC camera with Baader IR cut filter.
Thanks for looking.

Getting to this part of the Grand Canyon can be quite the challenge in itself. My jeep has been put thoroughly through testing as of late. In this image I'm holding a flashlight pointing at Jupiter as it rises in the twilight sky. The sun set about 45 minutes earlier and the sky began it's faint twilight glow. The moon above is illuminating the canyon, and is the only reason we can see into the otherwise dark area spanning 3,000 feet below. It's a sheer drop off, and in order to get onto the point you see, there are two cracks that must be jumped over. These cracks are quite deep, and thankfully at night you can't really see, but falling there would mean certain death. The wind is nearly always extremely strong here, it was probably 35 miles per hour this day. There are a few other faint stars in the sky, and the faint light from the sunset earlier is still shining through.

Bad seeing condition and bad collimation, from the balcony of my home.
There are a lots of artifacts as "onion rings" and ugly colors. Critics are welcomes.
I went down to Bull Shoals Lake on the southern border of MO with AR. It is the last of a four (or five depending) lakes that chain along the White River along its way to the Arkansas River. My intent was to photograph the Milky Way. Much to my chagrin, Bull Shoals is far too close to light pollution and my estimations of the MW position was off significantly.
The time was chosen to coincide with the new moon and a cold front that would drive away any clouds and smoke that had been present. I found instead that as the temperature drops below the dew point, duh-- the dew condenses everywhere, on and inside the tent, camera, tripod, occupants, et al. I was prepared for the temperature but not the wet. This shot of Jupiter and the southern horizon was early, before I noticed you have to dry the lens between each shot.
Unfortunately I didn't bother to use the tripod so Jupiter's moons are rather blurry.
Thank you everyone for your visits, faves and comments, they are always appreciated :)

Jupiter is advancing rapidly toward opposition on January 10. That’s when the gas giant will be at its closest to Earth and at the brightest it will be all year. To prepare for that event and practice my planetary astrophotography skills, I searched for a date and time when Jovian moon Ganymede would transit as close as possible to the planet. The event was to occur on December 23 at 10pm local time.
I wanted Ganymede in my picture not only because its the largest moon orbiting the largest planet, but also because it is the biggest moon in the entire solar system, larger than planet Mercury and more than twice the diameter of dwarf planet Pluto. On Ganymede, beneath a 95 mile thick sheet of ice lies a salt water ocean believed to contain more water than every ocean on Earth combined. It is possible that microbial life may have taken root in this ocean.
A two-image composite showing Jupiter and its four brightest moons. Considering this was taken using only a camera it seems to have come out quite well.

Almost full, with Jupiter and three of her moons in the sky together.
(I admit that this is a stitched photo. It was impossible to capture the moon and Jupiter together, and get detail, as the moon was so bright and obliterated the planet when I didn't zoom in on the moon. But the position of Jupiter is about where I saw it in the sky. )

Well we were in Italy... Val Gardena.
This was a nice view, some of the views were gut wrenching, the shots you usually get just after take off - but from a road!
NGC 3242, is a planetary nebula located in the constellation Hydra, around 1400 to 2500 light years away. It is also known as the Ghost of Jupiter, or Jupiter's Ghost as its apparent size is similar to the Planet Jupiter. William Herschel discovered the nebula on February 7, 1785 from the Cape of Good Hope, in South Africa.
The nebula measures around two light years long from end to end, and contains a central white dwarf with an apparent magnitude of eleven. The inner layers of the nebula were formed some 1,500 years ago.
I have been collecting data on this for a few years now, from multiple cameras, and locations. So, now it was time to put it all together. It may not look like it, but this may be one of the toughest images I have attempted to process to date. The dynamic range is incredible. The red and blue gas regions to the left of the nebula are very dim, and the nebula itself very bright. There is also a lot of very dim dust throughout the full frame I wanted to keep. It gives an uneven Smokey red brown look throughout background. Both broad-band (Lum, Red Green Blue) and narrow-band (Ha, OIII) data were used to create the image to try and highlight different areas
The planetary has what looks like waves of matter blown away. This was very strong in OIII, and not present in the Ha data. Many galaxies are spread throughout the background.
Thanks for looking.

Jupiter rising over Mercury Passage and Maria Island. Johnsons Point at the right and Perpendicular Mountain on Maria at the left. Saturn must be buried in the cloud...
Not the sharpest of frames but it was another lens tester with a Contax G 90/2.8 Sonnar. Seems like a very handy astro lens if the tracker is dialled in properly and maybe the lens stopped down a little.
Two frame blend but both at 25 secs - one for the lower section then the tracker engaged for the heavens.
Interesting lens flare cast by the planet - not sure why that is. Small light at the left is a navigation marker.
Nikon z6, Contax G 90/2, 25secs at f/2.8, ISO 3200
Close conjunction of Jupiter and Venus at just a bit more than half a degree apparent distance, about the apparent size of the Moon.
Jupiter, to the left, though much larger than Venus, appears less bright due to its greater distance from both the Sun and the Earth. If you zoom in, you can see all four Galilean moons. From top to bottom above Jupiter: Callisto, Ganymede and Io, and below Jupiter, Europa.
Canon EOS6D with Leica Elmarit-R 180 mm, stopped down to f/8, 1 s exposure to bring out the "sunstar", a diffraction effect on the edges of the diaphragm blades.
This striking view of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot and turbulent southern hemisphere was captured by NASA’s Juno spacecraft as it performed a close pass of the gas giant planet. Juno took the three images used to produce this color-enhanced view on Feb. 12, 2019, between 9:59 a.m. PST (12:59 p.m. EST) and 10:39 a.m. PST (1:39 p.m. EST), as the spacecraft performed its 17th science pass of Jupiter. At the time the images were taken, the spacecraft was between 16,700 miles (26,900 kilometers) and 59,300 miles (95,400 kilometers) above Jupiter's cloud tops, above a southern latitude spanning from about 40 to 74 degrees.

Earth calling Joey……Its time to use your warp speed and beam yourself back home now young man, as it is well past your bedtime…And no…..It is not alright for you to joy ride the rings of Saturn first…It was bad enough last night when you did your Moon walk….And flew all around Saturn…Then made out you was one of Jupiter moons…Gave Venus a special Sheltie Kiss <3…..Made Neptune as warm as the Sun…….Then landed on Mars and making friends with the Martians living there…Made Pluto a 2nd moon to Mother earth….Stilled the burning infernal on Mercury…And leaving me sat on Uranus watching it all…..Need I say more…No I thought not…..Now come on home Joey…

Self-timer shot taken during a night spent on the summit of Mount Brévent (2.525 m), over Chamonix.
Taken on March 14th 2012, looking West, just to show the last light of the sun already gone, and, even more important, the beautiful shining presence of two planets: Jupiter and Venus.
On the right of the two planets mentioned, in this photo you can see: Hamal (Alpha Arietis), Sheratan (Beta Arietis), the brightest stars in the constellation of Aries.
Center: Almaak, Mirach, Alpheratz, of Andromeda constellation.
More to the North (up on the far right) is visible the Cassiopeia constellation, with Ruchbah, y Cas, η Cas, Caph, Shedir...

Conjunction of the Moon and Jupiter on the morning of 25th November 2016. Exposed for Earthshine and the Jovian moons
In my latest video, I take you behind the scenes as I photograph Jupiter at opposition (youtu.be/FfwLcATweWc)
I share one of my first images ever taken of Jupiter (In 2010😮), and how this one compares to it.
This image was captured using a color dedicated astronomy camera through my 11" telescope in the backyard on August 19th.
I stacked the best 30% of 15,000 frames to capture my best image of the gas giant yet.
I hope you get a chance to observe Jupiter through a telescope this month!
We took a road trip down to Jupiter to see the lighthouse. This view is from Bubba Gump's Restaurant Patio. I believe you have a better photo opportunity at Bubba Gump's than you do in the actual Lighthouse park. Canon 70D - Sigma 17-50mm, HDR
