I tried my hand at processing some of Gerald's images. The scaling is a little weird on these, as I squeezed the image horizontally to fit the horizon to a circle, and then resized to 1920x1200 for use as a wallpaper. The original JunoCam images have enough artifacting and noise that I don't think there's much change in the amount of detail. I used the HLVG plugin for Photoshop to remove the greenish cast to the images, and then used the lightest-toned clouds to set the gray point of the image. The results look qualitatively pretty similar to processed Cassini images of Jupiter, so I'm happy.

Everyone who's processed images from PJ6 (Sean and Justin in particular), if you could upload your images or your favorite subset to missionjuno, Candy Hansen is currently at a Juno science team meeting and would like to highlight your work. Gerald's are obviously there already.

Most of the remaining PJ06 close-up raws are on the mission site by now. So, I had a long night with processing these.
I've modified the red/green ratio from 0.82 to 0.88 for the new processings. Images #122 and #123 have bad reddish pixels due to some yet unidentified over- or underflow. I'm not yet sure, how long it will take to fix this software issue. If someone likes to post-process the images, especially the two flawed ones, feel free to do so. I'll upload the new images to the missionjuno site except #122, #123, and #142. The latter shows greenish portions due to partial CCD saturation. (I'll notify Candy directly via email, before uploading.) Before rendering a full movie, I'll first need to find and fix the software issue. In the meanwhile, I can adjust the color weights for the movie according to your wishes. This week, I've only later today, Wednesday and Thursday time for movie renditions. So, I'm not yet sure, whether I'll be able to complete a full pole to pole flyby animation with 125-fold time lapse this week. But I'm confident to able to render some fragments, at least. I'll start rendering the approach sequence for the northern half in about 12 hours, even if the software flaw won't be removed, and hope, that it won't show up in this part of the sequence. |

Hi
Those Junocam pictures processed by you, Gerald, are very inspiring And excellent work everyone ! Some of my takes on your wonderful work. I have increase the exposure, balanced the colors and sharpened a little. On the full disk Jupiter image, I added some soft light effet to match the feeling we can have by watching at the gas giant with a telescope. What I love here is that we are seeing actual cumulo-nimbus clouds, the clouds that are forming cells of thunderstorms. This image was processed to have a view we can have if we had a 50mm lens (I had to reproject the cylindrical image into rectilinear). And a full disk Jupiter -------------------- |

These images are absolutely incredible. It's amazing to see at last the fine texture of the cloudscapes. For me, this is the first time Jupiter has ever looked like a place, rather than an abstract painting.
Huge, huge, respect to all whose work has contributed to these images!! |

So now all these people ( including myself ) that were a bit disappointed with the Juno images finally have to take their words back. Also amazing to see how some higher clouds / layers throw shadows on lower layers. |

These are phenomenal.... really feel I am seeing the planet now for first time. Cannot take my eyes off the details.
Thanks to Junocam team and all the incredible image magicians out there. Craig |
