Here is a Mars that I imaged over a week ago, been going through the avi's tonight and found this one in amongst all the avi's I took that night.
Seeing was good, but still not great.

Anyway here you go.

Nice work Paul.

Can't wait to see some pics with the 9.25. That should be very interesting by comparison.

You sold the Meade yet?

Excellent image Paul - I'd be proud of that one!:) Assume that was 10fps for 200 sec? Do you generally run around 1/25sec exposures?

cheers,

Thanks guys, glad you like the image.

Robert, this one was 10fps and for and yes for a little over 200 seconds. However it was shot at 1/33 of a second. Gain was 20%, Gamma 0, saturation 95%. Will like to try gain 40% gamma 20%, saturation 95 but would need to shoot at 1/500 or so.

Anyway, thanks for the comments guys.
