Jupiter and Io

Jupiter with Io disappearing behind the planet, and reappearing from the shadow later. Captured from Juchtas, Crete (~800 m altitude) on 28 April 2017. The "jump" in the animation is from when I relocated from a little below the peak, to the actual peak where the seeing was better. Even just slightly below the peak I could feel an intermittent cold drainage flow, and the telescopic views were blurred as a result.
