Got a new mount and new planetary cam this year so wanted to compare my best Jupiter shots side by side. I think it showcases an interesting look at what can be achieved on the same target with different equipment. Far left shows my first telescope (AWB Onesky) and my motivation to upgrade to the Celestron 9.25" SCT (middle and right images).

After getting the middle image I was itching to get higher resolution images and more details so went with the 2 micron pixel size in the ZWO ASI 676.

Really happy with how all the results turned out and it is really cool to see the progression of my images over the years with me learning more, upgrading equipment, and honing my post processing skills.
