Photos of Jupiter and Saturn

These are photos that I took with my SACIVb CCD camera and my 8 inch Meade Reflector from my backyard on 02/02/02. This was my second attempt at using the CCD camera. Most of the pictures that I took on my first attempt were over exposed. This time I used a barlow to increase the magnification. The seeing wasn't especially great tonight, but it was the first time that the sky had been clear and it wasn't cold. I fooled around with a bunch of different post processing to try to bring out different features. Overall, I'm please with the pictures that I was able to take on only my second attempt at using the camera.
