Jupiters other side face after hours of opposition (Oct.29th). Oval Ba has faded slightly with its barges and festons on the belt regions (north is up).

From Eldorado Star Party in Eldorado, TX.
Dusk before a night of imaging. My 10" RC scope awaiting dark skies, with the moon and Mercury visible (just above the telephone pole) just after sunset.

Re: Recent Submissions
Not a fancy image this time, but something at least as exciting I think. I recently stepped into the topic of photometry. Doing measurements I found high accuracies and so I took up the challenge to detect an exoplanet from my backyard. Two days ago there was a transit predicted of Qatar-1b, an exoplanet discovered in 2010, and I made images during the transit to see if I could detect the planet passing in front of the star. Here is the result. It makes me wonder what future has in mind for us. Only two decades ago exoplanets were something that only existed in human minds, and nowadays you can detect them with home equipment from your backyard. What's next?
The time series was made using an Celestron C11 and an ordinary SXV-H9 ccd camera.
