Note aircraft with contrail on lower left of frame above signature. If the planets ever truly aligned, it was during daylight at my latitude/longitude when the planets were not visible. If you left click to enlarge the image, you can see three of the moons orbiting Jupiter.
Jupiter showing its Great Red Spot rotating out of view to the right. The moons Callisto, Europa and Io are on the upper left and the moon Ganymede is on the lower right. Taken with a ZWO 1120MC planetary camera through an Explore Scientific 102ED refracting telescope using a 2x barlow lens.
It was an interesting night: the seeing varied from completely blurred to good. About 1 hour after midnight, the seeing stabilized. Shortly before the autumnal fog rolled in again, I succeeded in taking my sharpest image of this Jupiter season so far.

Jupiter on May 31st 2022. GRS is rotating out of view to the lower right and is a nice bright orange/red color.

Shot during the conjuction of Jupiter and Venus late February and early March 2023.
Even though Jupiter is more than 1500 times bigger than Venus, it is much further away and therefore it is the smaller dot in the sky.

01 Feb. 2025. Image captured with a Mewlon 210 and Player One Uranus C camera. Autostakkert and Registack for processing.
It has been about 8 years since I last did planetary imaging. But I thought to get back into it when Saturn was edge on with us giving 5 opportunities for capturing Titan transiting the planet which only occurs every 13 years. I bought a new planetary camera specially for this rare event. But I failed every time either due to my rusty skill or the weather. But I still need to try out my new camera and thought to capture "Io moon" transiting Jupiter as my first testing and planetary comeback venture. Still very rusty, I got a lot wrong with the capture, but at least I got something and seized a moment which my Astrophotography is all about, and so here I present an Io moon transit, but apologies for the below par quality given the potential of my gear!
I was also joined by my fellow skychasing friend who brought her smartscope pointed it at the sky and immediately caught two nebulas, Orion and a...fish! It got me thinking as we sat with our scopes chatting and quietly waiting in the night a few feet away from the local church, astronomy is very much like going fishing except we're fishing for planets, nebulas and galaxies in the great space lake above.
Camera: Svbony sv705c
Telescope: Celestron Nexstar 8se
mount: Celestron Nexstar 8se (alt-az Goto)
Capture software: Sharpcap Pro
Filter: None (bad! should have put an IR/UV cut for better clarity and avoid purple cast)
Barlow: Televue Powermate 2.5x with Televue T-ring for shorter barrel and no tilt chain.
2 mins video at 10fps (again bad because I forgot to set the ROI so I was capturing 4k videos)
Post: Pipp to crop and track the planet. Autostackert to stack, AstroSurface for wavelet sharpening and RGB white balance, Affinity for final curves and levels.
The Jupiter (Russian: Юпитер, "Jupiter") series of lenses are Russian camera lenses made by various manufacturers in the former Soviet Union. It is derived from the Zeiss Sonnar design. It has six elements in three groups.
It was made for two different camera mounts, the Leica thread mount used on Zorki, FED, and some other Soviet rangefinders, and the Contax mount used on Kiev rangefinders. The latter one can be used on all Contax rangefinders, with the former usually needing to be adjusted to properly work on non-Soviet rangefinders using Leica thread mount. The lens is a standard M39 mount.
Additionally, there existed a modified version of this lens, called the Jupiter-8M. The only difference between the two versions is that the modified version had click-stops on the aperture ring. It was available only in Contax mount for Kiev rangefinders.
A variation of Jupiter-8 lens was the usual standard lens on many Zorki and Kiev cameras, making it a pretty common lens even today.
camerapedia.fandom.com/wiki/Kiev_4
(both lens and camera made in 1964. so they should be still the original "couple"... also I wonder what version this one is? many variations between them.
The Kiev rangefinder cameras were developed after WW II in the Arsenal factory in Kiev (Ukraine). Soviet forces had "relocated" equipment and personnel from the Zeiss Ikon factories in Germany. In Kiev Zeiss Ikon's Contax production line was set up again and quickly started production under the Kiev brand name. Early models are said to have been made from original Zeiss Ikon stock the Soviets had taken with them. There are reports of models with the original Contax nameplate behind the new Kiev shield.
One of the excellent things about this Kiev is its long rangefinder base: 9 cm. This allows for very accurate focusing. For example, when you are focusing for a tightly composed portrait, you see a clear difference when the nose or the eyes are in perfect focus.

Jupiter, the fifth planet from the Sun and largest in the solar system, is known to have X-ray-producing aurora around its poles. Jupiter is seen here in X-rays from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory (purple) and infrared from the Hubble Space Telescope (red, green, and blue).
In this composite image of Jupiter, the fifth planet from the Sun is set against the blackness of space, flanked by neon purple blobs. Here, Jupiter is presented in exceptionally clear focus. More than a dozen bands of swirling gas streak the surface, each a different texture and shade of grey. The gas giant is encircled by a fine, sky-blue ring, the same color as the large storm which swirls on its surface at our lower right. At the top edge of Jupiter, tilted just to our right of center, is a neon purple strip. A similar, smaller line of neon purple can be found at the bottom edge of the planet. Capping the planet’s magnetic poles, these purple strips represent X-ray auroras, created when high-energy particles collide with gas in the planet’s atmosphere. At our right and left, large hazy blobs of neon purple flank Jupiter, some larger than the gas giant itself. Like the auroras, these purple clouds represent X-rays observed by Chandra.

attractive markings and colours I think. Some of the individual apples can have quite a bit of russet, especially at the stalk end of the apple.
I really like this apple variety and often recommend it as one to grow in my area. It is a daughter of Cox's Orange Pippin (COP) and retains much of the aromatic and balanced taste of its mother. But is a bigger apple, more prolific, more vigorous tree and and much less disease susceptible than COP.
I am eating a few of these a day now. They keep OK but were more crisp a couple of weeks ago than they are now.
