Details:
On December 10, Jupiter is the closest to Wasat (delta Gemini, 3.5 mag) by 14.9 arcmin that is almost equal to the apparent lunar radius.
3 of 4 Galilean Moons are captured, while Io cannot be separated with the overexposed Jupiter.
(If all 4 captured, they aligned to one side following Jupiter.)
Nikon COOLPIX P510 digital camera (no telescope); ISO 800, F5.9, 1/6s exposure, f=1000mm (rotated).
