Just wanted to see if I could capture the Martian moons with a small scope.
Taken with my Celestron NexStar 6SE and ZWO 290MC camera.
Composite image processed in Photoshop CS5.
Richard, that is just a wonderful image. Reminded me a little of the Space Art of Chesney Bonnestell (see below) who provided the art work for the opening of the original War Of of The Worlds movie from 1953.
I just had a look at the opening of the movie and your image took me back to one of my all time faves, must watch again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBJXbRQ_r9Q

Love it when amateurs push the envelope as you have with your image and equipment, Bravo!
Thanks Peter.
One of my favourite movies. I have it on DVD. During the lockdown I listened to an audiobook of the original novel by HG Wells. Loved it.
Fantastic results Richard, I'm outside just trying the same and already I have just noticed Phobos peeking out above one of the diffraction spikes from my spider.
