Well done! You and John are more dedicated than I am...
Down here it was windy and there was a serious disturbance layer in the atmosphere (one could focus the scope on it while looking at Mars), so I packed up at 11:30, and of course the wind dropped by the time I was locking up the shed..

Outstanding Maurice. Cloud is hindering proceedings here.

That is fantastically detailed, showing texture in the Hellas cloud too.

Thanks John. Hopefully the sky will be clear & we'll get some good seeing....talk to you nearer to the weekend.




Thank you Mike. I think that when Mars hits the 15" mark it makes a big difference to the detail you can see in images - seeing permitting of course.



Just goes to show how different the seeing can be; and we're only 20km or so from each other..



Thanks Paul. I'd love to see another image of Mars from you.



Cheers John. Good seeing helps a lot! Pity it only comes around once in a while..



Thank you Franck.
