On July 15, 2012, there was an occultation between the Moon and Jupiter. The images taken then with video camer but also with the DSLR camera can be seen in the articles A closer look of Moon and Jupiter conjunction Picture gallery, Moon Jupiter occultation videos by telescope 15 July 2012 in Romania.

These images from the same event, arrived on the blog just now, these being some processings in Registax program.
