Maurice - I think that the seeing peaked close to 5:00am on Sunday by the looks of things so lets hope we get another morning like that soon!

p.s. you can image Mars for up to 10-12 minutes at the moment so you can capture more frames.
Thanks John, I think seeing was better about 20 minutes earlier when I looked through the eyepiece but then deteriorated a little by the time I got the laptop and camera out. It was great for once to know exactly where the correct focus was!

I will keep it in mind for next time than I can image for longer.

Just goes to show...I should have waited a little longer..

Thanks Maurice, Glad you were imaging as well and bummer than the seeing was not as crisp at 330.

Both you guys seem to do a lot better job with the edge of the planet. I suspect I am a little heavy handed on the processing.
