Another go at Mars

[Jon_hm]

Taken last night at 10.00 ish. Neximage 5, 7" MCT. Focus is a little better than my first go but so was the seeing - I think. Also Jupiter taken earlier in the evening.

Thanks for looking - comments and tips appreciated.

Clear skies

Wow, i think your Mars is particularly impressive, and is much better than any of my attempts so far with an ASI120MC/2.5xTV powermate and a 10" Newt. Not sure how our set ups differ in terms of sensitivity and focal length though.
Well done

Only about a million % better than anything I've managed
with those two.

Hi Bob, that was at f14. The neximage is my first webcam so I cant say anything informative about its sensitivity. Everyone seems to rave about the ZWO cams though. Thanks for the kind words by the way :).

Thanks Raymo, I took your advice about Saturn and its getting better but nothing worth a repost yet. I love the M83 you just posted and hope to get a toehold with DSLR/DSOs in the future. Cheers

They look great.

Thanks Paul - I think last night was one of the better ones we have had for a while in terms of seeing.

Edit: apparently the seeing was pretty ordinary in Brisbane last night (From a comment seen whilst browsing the advanced solar system imaging forum). Kind of nice as it suggests I can probably get a fair bit more detail if we do have a good night in the next week or so.
