Christopher Go (355mm SC)
Seeing was variable this evening.  Fortunately,there were periods of good seeing.

Oval BA is prominent in these images.  The color is currently pale orange. 
Note the white core is well resolved. The SSTB ovals are very bright in CH4.
The SEB is very active in this region. Note the small white ovals on the SEBs. There are complex outbreaks on the NEB. Note the small ovals lining up on the NTB.
There is also a dark red oval on the NTZ which is bright in methane band. [Christopher Go : Cebu Philippines]

Michael Kassl (210mm Dall-Kirkham)
In SEB and NEB I could see some brighter areas. 
The NTB showed a knotty structure and above the NTC there was a darker area.
I assume,that the dark oval in the NNTB should be the WOS-BA,but the position is not quite accurate.

Imaged Jove March 7th in good seeing for the low alt. Oval BA and the region immediately preceding the GRS is well seen. 
There is a tiny white spot on the Northern edge of the SPR over toward the P limb.
A line of 5 small white ovals is seen in the SSTB as is are several dark spots which lead the GRS.
There is an isolated dark spot below and trailing Oval BA.
The SEB contains quite a smooth band within it which seems more prominent the close the proximity to the GRS.
There is a prominent red barge in the NTrZ coming in from the F limb.
I have also included a RGB animation which nicely shows all of the SSTB white ovals along with the dark spots preceding the GRS. [Trevor Barry:Broken Hill:Australia]

Please note the details in the GRS,the white dot sligthly off center in Oval BA and EuropaLs crescent appearance.
