This is my first image from this apparation that really shows the NPC well. You can see it good in RGB and Red. I also like those thin clouds that I managed to pick up south of the NPC's southern edge. You can't see them in red, indicating water/ice clouds. Seeing and transparency were still only average at best (honestly, more like poor). Can't wait for some good seeing. Thanks to all in advance....

Nice work, Joel. I haven't seen a Mars shot for such a long time.

Thanks for posting.

A very nice effort Joel, thanks for posting.

Looking at these it seems that the underlying detail that is most certainly there, is only really being effected by the seeing.

If there were major dust storms present I don't think the detail in the highlands would be there. Given good seeing I think you will be posting some rip snorter images, judging by what you are picking up in poor seeing.

Regards
Trevor
