First trials with my C14 on Jupiter

This is my first result of capturing Jupiter with my C14. Although seeing conditions were not too bad, I must admit I expected a better result. I guess improved collimation and a focuser with finer adjustments would help to achieve better results. A week of predicted cloudy weather  should give me plenty of time to think it through.
