Jupiter 16.10.2010
Seeing was acceptable ;) some high level fog/clouds limited Jupiter brightness and image quality, but I've managed to get few good images. There was Ganymede transit, GRS and Ganymede shadow later on.RGB ~f/20, DMK21; 18:11, 18:24, 20:40 UTC:

In the false color image it has comet-like look:
