Bright side of Mars

Hi everyone, I've been a keen novice for 15 years and with help from my like minded astro mates have been introduced to the challenging field of astrophotography(What have I got myself into??).
With all the hype around Mars and its pending opposition I managed my first image of the Red Planet 2am Saturday showing part of the Tharis region at approx 160 longitude. This image was captured afocal using a canon S110 with my 10" Newt.
