Everyone's mars images are amazing. This one as well Marc. It's incredible what amateurs can achieve compared to the classic astronomers of last century.

You'd have to think Lowell etc would have loved to produce images as detailed as you've done here. No canals visible...

Thanks. :thumbsup: Yes some pretty amazing close up shots lately. Looks like everybody's at it right now.

Great work Marc! Yes agreed, everyones on IIS images of Mars and the changes are just incredible. I remember sketching 34 years ago, must find those and pull them out as the detail in a 12inch was amazing. So well done and thanks for presenting!

Thanks Dennis. :thumbsup: Nah... I'm way too lazy for that. I've automated and batched most of the steps now. Watching NCIS now. :P
