Two images taken 35 minutes apart during a clear spell of about 45 minutes just after midnight. 'Seeing' had been poor early in the evening with a wobbly Jupiter, not helped by regular clusters of clouds obscuring the target. During the clear spell the atmosphere calmed down and the 'seeing' improved briefly to let me take these pleasing images, although they are still not quite as sharp as my best image to date this year, on 30 September.
