Conditions were quite tough for imaging. I usually start with the planet farthest in their east-to-west track in the sky.
Jupiter is currently farthest along,but I wanted to wait for the Great Red Spot to rotate into view,so I started with Saturn instead.
Notes:
The southernmost regions peeking out from under the rings are visibly bluer than the rest of the planet.

Saturn saw the best of the conditions on this session.
Some discrete features are visible in the atmosphere. The hexagon is also nicely defined.
