Mars with ED80

Few older images showing my progress of imaging Mars with ED80.
All taken with ED80 + SPC900NC, processed with pipp (crop + quality selection) + autostakkert (stacking and more quality selection) + wavelets in registax.

We have:
1. 20/4/2016, 2x Barlow, 1200 frames - very small
2. 21/4/2016, 2x Barlow + 3x Barlow - this is a real pain to focus and to locate the object!!!
3. 16/5/2016, 2x Barlow + 3x Barlow, 2000 frames

And it has rained since...

I am clearly getting better but I am not sure how much more can be squeezed out of the small aperture.

Edit: uploaded photo 4 showing the calsky view of Mars at the same time the image 3 was taken.
