Subject: The "Gaseous" Duo

Hello, all.

Attached is a duo image of Jupiter and Saturn shot with video on 20
November with an Astrovid 2000 and 25cm Newtonian.  Seeing conditions
continue to be moderately poor with either dreadful turbulence (Jet Stream
tends to park itself over the San Francisco Bay Area) or very poor
transparency.  Image contrast remains low with both planets - most
frustrating.  Still, I seem to keep getting slightly better images and
these are the best I have obtained thus far.  Not running with the "Big
Dogs" yet, but I'm starting to gain on the pack........as it were.

Cheers,
Jim
