The following are a selection of images I've taken from most recent to oldest. Currently, all planetary images are taken through a Celestron C6 using a Canon SL2 DSLR camera. Data is processed using aPIPP to process and convert the raw camera video, AutoStakkert to stack the video frames, Registax to sharpen the image using wavelets, Pixelmator to adjust color, contrast, etc, and finally Topaz DeNoise (in recent images) to help remove lingering noise. I'm currently processing all data on a 2016 12" Macbook with PIPP, AutoStakkert, and Registax (which are PC programs) running on the Mac using WineBottler.

A storm system weakening in the Gulf of Alaska has had some pretty instability waves develop the last couple of days as the flow around the low weakens and breaks down. Water vapor satellite imagery clearly shows the instability waves developing and amplifying around the perimeter of the low. You can watch a video of the storm evolution below.
