　よ〜〜〜やく撮影できました。シーイングはいまいちですが、新年早々（ＪＳＴ）
の画像と言うことでご勘弁を。

　あけましておめでとうございます。近くの神社に初詣した後、何とか撮影できる天
候になったので思い切って望遠鏡を据え付けました。薄雲が発生しておりましたの
で、seeing 5/10 と厳しかったのですが、本年度初の画像と言うことですので・・
・。ここのところ撮影できる天候でなかったので、久しぶりの報告となりました。し
ばらくぶりにみるとずいぶん変化があるようです。
　気になる変化はNTZの中央経度付近にオレンジの斑点らしきものが認められること
です。他に観測された方、いかがでしょうか。

An interesting observation of Jupiter made on the last date of 2001.
The NEB Disturbance (center at 151.9 L2, 237.4 L3) is prominent on
the CM showing a "spike-like" projection to the southwest
(South-following) and a broader, fan-like portion to the east (preceding).
A small, very bright (8/10) oval is noted preceding the NEB Disturbance
along the northern edge of the NEB (NEB-N).
The northern half of the SEB (SEB-N) appears to contain dark (3/10)
condensations ("lumps") over this portion of the planet.
Streaky festoons (2-3/10) were noted to connect to a diffuse (5/10)
Equatorial Band (EB).
A South Tropical Zone (STrZ) band was noted as well preceding the CM.

Date (U.T.): December 31, 2001
Time (U.T.): 06:20

Instrument: 8-inch (20-cm) F/8.7 Klevtzov-Cassegrain
Magnification: 252x
Filters: None (Integrated light, due to brief opportunity of observation)
Seeing (1-10): 4-6, Antoniadi (I-V): III
Transparency (1-6): 4 (Intermittent clouds with heavy cloud cover soon
afterwards)

Seeing initally poor-fair (3-6), but improved later fair-good (5-8.)
Transparency excellent (5.5mag.)
Wind SE (0-5mph.) Light dew. Very cold! (-2 deg C.)

Altitude: 61-62  degs.
Diameter: 47.0".

Observation comments:
This is my first observation from the new  location.
Detailed views were obtained at times during the session.
Most attention was paid to the SEB p. the GRS and the GRS area itself.
The South Tropical Band appeared quite turbulent as did the SEBs.
The Band itself appeared gray in colour in contrast to the very
dark SEBs which had a very deep brick red hue. The GRS apeared
quite pale, with a lighter northern half.
Its appeared decidedly eye shaped with a dark southern rim.
The NEB appeared quite active with 3 barges and 2 "portals" observed.
A small strreak of NNTB also observed, but much fainter than the
streak observed last year at similar longitudes.

Hi all,

Here is my first observation obtained from my new location.
Some fine views were had at times. A shame i cant shoot images
at the moment, but hopefully I'll have things in more order with
regard to the house etc soon!. Happy new year to all.

Best Wishes
