I use the Baader RGB filters. I went for the red look some go for the salmon colour, normally I am somewhere inbetween.

Stefan Buda Hi John,

Impressive image!

How did you clean up the limb so nicely?

Stefan the limb was naturally ringless but I find when there is a phase WJupos leaves brighter red pixels on the limb so I blur the with a small brush at 2 pixels before using an eclipse tool around the planet to take away the fuzzy overlap.

strongmanmike That's an amazing Mars image, love the strong colours and contrast and lack of ringing a the limbs, you are fast becoming our own Damian Peach

Thanks Mike, I have still not had the best seeing but good none the less so I can't complain this season (not as good as Barbados though). My Olympus Mons was my best so far with a steady image on the screen which is exciting to see.

Regards, John.
