My thanks for these results. The IR images of the dayside do not show the  
surface because the surface thermal emission is too small compared with that  
from the sunlit cloudtops. (Only at night can we, as the late David Allen  
actually wrote, become voyeurs looking through the net curtains.....)
 
The UV images show typical markings and I am fairly sure the longitude will  
turn out to be the same as these images from 2004 September (attached). The  
comparison is very suggestive.
 
I would welcome more UV images from any recipient!
All the best
