Just another night that didn't live up to Skippy's promise :P
The seeing was quite variable, but never great.
Still it was nice to be out again, and at a decent hour :lol:

Still a very nice image Rob, with a lot of detail.

Good image scale, and detail showing Ascraeus peeking through the clouds.

I know what the seeing was like, a good result for the conditions.

Hi Rob
The volcano through the clouds is awesome!

Thanks Graeme!

Thanks Ivan, I was surprised to see as much detail :) there must have been a few fleeting moments of steadyness.

Thanks Matt, I was beginning to think I would never catch the Volcano's poking through the clouds, but a lot of it is in the processing (ie bringing out the clouds)

Even thou I live in Melbourne I have to say the seeing did affect the view on mars that night.

Rob,

Nice to see the clouds on another planet for a change!! I can't wait for those over Brisbane to part and let me do some more imaging...

Fantastic shot,

Cheers,

'Cause I didn't post one, it looked like a tiny shattered marble that been dug out of the ground :P
I got to say you have made a lot of ground on your planetary images :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

That would explain why I didn't see it then Bob. as long as it's not my Dementure :P
I still have a long way to go till I get close to where I want to be :rofl:
But it's fun learning :thumbsup:
