With no freaking useless filters. Thats the colors are as it would look if you'd look at it.

Most of the images of Jupiter you will find on the internet show the same colours which I see through my telescope. Here are some good examples:

Often the contrast is enhanced in these images to bring out fine detail, but the colours are 100% accurate.

The source is a bunch of pictures I took myself. It is surprisingly hard to get the color balance just right, but most of these look the same color as they planet does to my eye in the telescope.
