Good as it gets with the achro refractor I reckon! (unless it was 10/10 seeing)
This time I used the baader fringe killer & it works on the refractor like a charm! (thanks Robert_T) Also upped the anti on saturation & gamma on the toucam ;) (thanks bird, ice, Dave etc.)
Could of got myself more frames but tonight was experimentation :) night so this is only 60 frames.
Didn't muck with this image a whole lot, cropped & a wee bit of neatimage work.

Nice one John, you're putting in the hard yards lately, every night a new image! If it wasn't cloudy here I'd be doing the same :)

reckon you've cracked it Asi:) that's better than I thought would be possible with a 6in acro.
damn, now I have to stop blaming my tools and go back to blaming the weather;)

Hey thanks guys...your too kind!
Pity I left my run a bit late! With the purchase of the toucam I mean. Now Mars is getting smaller by the day, & all I can do is image it as it receeds. Oh well.
I'll restack/reprocess this AVI soon. I know the final image will be better than that one above....It's just waiting for me to bring it out.
