I hope this display helps with the location and observation of these fascinating lunar features. Lunar south is uppermost. Best viewed using expansion arrows.
For a reference to scale, the diameter of the crater Hortensius is 15Km (9 miles).

Jupiter and Io, 10th Sept 2022(22:23 UT) excellent seeing conditions , lots of detail around the Great Red Spot. This image consists of 3 de rotated images (best 3,000 frames each) from 3 AVI's last night, each AVI was just under 10,000 frames captured in 2.5 minutes. Captured using Firecapture V2.7, Processed using Autostakkert V3.1.4, and Registax V6. Equipment used, Celestron C14 Edge HD, CGEPRO Mount, ZWO ASI224MC camera, Carl Zeiss 2X Barlow and ZWO ADC.
Tycho Crater – diameter is 86 km and it is about 4.8 km in depth, located in the southern region of the moon. Starting to get more details in the finished photos, this one is starting to show details on the mountains inside the main crater.
Tech Specs: Meade 12” LX90, Celestron CGEM-DX mount, ASI290MC, best 2.5k of 5k frames, AutoStakkert! V3.0.14 (x64), FireCapture v2.5.10 x64 and Registax v6. Software used included Sharpcap v2.9 and AutoStakkert! Alpha Version 2.3.0.21. Photographed on July 4, 2017 from Weatherly, Pennsylvania.
Taken from Oxfordshire, UK with a William Optics 70mm refractor, 2x Barlow and Canon 1100D on a static EQ3-2 mount (the Moon was behind a big tree from my usual permanent pier). 2 sets of 75 images taken, one set under exposed to capture some surface features, the other set exposed to catch earthshine. Images were cropped and aligned with PIPP, then the best 65% stacked in Autostakkert! 3. Processed in Lightroom and Fast Stone. This image is a blend of the under and over exposed images to show a much larger dynamic range. These images always look pretty unnatural, but are fun to put together.
Tycho Crater – diameter is 86 km and it is about 4.8 km in depth, located in the southern region of the moon. The crater was named after Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe (1546–1601). From Wikipedia, “The crater is sharply defined, unlike older craters that have been degraded by subsequent impacts. The interior has a high albedo that is prominent when the Sun is overhead, and the crater is surrounded by a distinctive ray system forming long spokes that reach as long as 1,500 kilometers. Sections of these rays can be observed even when Tycho is illuminated only by earthlight.
Tech Specs: ZWO ASI290MC camera and Meade 12” LX90, best 20% of 5k frames. Software used included Sharpcap Pro v3.1 and AutoStakkert!3. Photographed on February 16, 2019 from the Dark Side Observatory in Weatherly, Pennsylvania, USA.

Jupiter 31st Aug 2022(23:32 UT) good seeing conditions , lots of detail around the Great Red Spot. Two 10,000 frame AVI's were used here to produce two stacks of 3,000 frames, merged in Winjupos. Captured using Firecapture V2.7, Processed using Autostakkert V3.1.4, and Registax V6. Equipment used, Celestron C14 Edge HD, CGEPRO Mount, ZWO ASI224MC camera, Carl Zeiss 2X Barlow and ZWO ADC.
AR2192 had a name the day I took this picture. Unfortunately south Florida has been very cloudy these last couple of days to be able to follow up on this monster, said to measure around 125.000Km wide. That to the untrained is almost as big as Jupiter. 3000 Frames in Autostakkert and Wavelets in Registax. Colorized because it looks cool in that orange yellowish color. But the Sun is white!!
Crater Proclus is the bright, rayed crater just left of center image. The entiriety of Mare Crisium lies to the east, and eastern Mare Tranquillitatis is the darker plain in the lower left corner of the image. (A. Ruki 26, 27, 37 and 38)

I finally got some decent conditions for imaging Jupiter last night. Dew was terrible and the seeing was decent plus very transparent sky. I am still getting some artifacts in the image so I hope I can solve them. This is an LRGB image with 5000 frames in Lum and 3000 frames in each channel R, G and B. Captured using a ASI120MM with Firecapture, stack and alignment with Autostakkert, wavelets with Registax and post with Photoshop. LRGB combine and de-rotation using WInjupos. This is OK for a first decent session this apparition.
Taken from Oxfordshire, UK with a William Optics 70mm refractor, Celestron 3x Barlow and ASI120MC camera, when the Moon was a 40% illuminated Waxing Crescent. A 2,000 frame video shot with SharpCap Pro, the best 75% percent were stacked with Autostakkert! 3 then processed in Lightroom and Fast Stone Image Viewer
The large escarpment running across the image is Rupes Altai. It is about 427km long and at its northern end it reaches a height of nearly 1km. The crater at the southern end of Rupes Altai is Piccolomini. The large crater to the upper right of it is Catharina.

Saturn, the 6th planet, just before its 2021 opposition. Opposition surge, also called the Seeliger effect, is the rapid increase in brightness as the phase angle of an object approaches zero (directly opposite the sun) and all shadows disappear. The effect is seen clearly in these images taken 4 days apart as the rings, composed of solid water ice particles, became almost fully illuminated and showed a 14% increase in brightness. The globe itself is entirely gas and does not brighten.

My first record of sunspots. I inserted an identification chart (adapted from NASA's SOHO website) with the approximate size of the Earth and Jupiter in proportion to the Sun (and its spots). This image contains, from left to right, sunspots 2786 and 2785.
"Sunspots are temporary phenomena on the Sun's photosphere that appear as spots darker than the surrounding areas. They are regions of reduced surface temperature caused by concentrations of magnetic field flux that inhibit convection. Sunspots usually appear in pairs of opposite magnetic polarity.[2] Their number varies according to the approximately 11-year solar cycle". Source: Wikipedia.org

At the point where the X and V were becoming brighter and more pronounced, a big bank of cloud put an end to my imaging run. I had so many technical issues go wrong on me whilst shooting this so I'm pleased to have managed to get anything at all!
