Details:
It was as impressive as rare: last night the very black shadows of Io and Ganymede crossed Jupiter disk at the same time. I took this image at 3:19 am local time in Buenos Aires (6:19 UT) from my backyard observatory. Sadly, the seeing and atmospheric transparency were very poor, so the image it wasn´t very clear. This photo is the final result of 2500 stacked frames, taken with my 12" SCT and a planetary camera.
Io was in transit (with its shadow), and Ganymede appears next to the planet.
