Photo taken 16 August 2009 from Mount Laurel, NJ. 06:52 UT.

 Seeing was good this night and it was exciting to pull in a photo where Ganymede is a distinct disc and there is structure detail inside the Great Red Spot.

 CPC 1100 (11" Celestron) with 2.5X Barlow, DMK monochrome camera and RGB filters.  1/5 second exposures stacked in Registax and processed with Photoshop.
