Mars was up 75 degrees in this image taken with the CGE1400 and a DragonFly2 camera at 60fps/ best of 1500 frames. You can see the clouds over Olympus Mons just at the edge of the picture at the 8 o'clock position. Conditions in Miami at 30 minutes past midnight were:
clear skies, no wind, 59 deg F, very dewy requiring energizing a heat strip. Conditions today have returned to the usual grey skies.:rolleyes:

Strewth Dave 75 degrees, we have less than half that.

Dave, you certainly are picking up some nice detail but the colour looks a bit strange. How does your result, colour wise, compare with others using the same setup? It might pay to have a look around and find someone that is using a C 14 with the same camera to compare your images with.
