3 Sols on Mars with the ASI290mm

my best Mars images approaching and on the day of opposition (13/5/16, 15/5/16, 22/5/16). I also included a blue channel separately processed from 22/5/16, because of how good it looked Seeing was variable but generally good for about an hour on 22/5/16. Blue channel seeing average on 13/5 and 15/5, with red and green channels on all nights really showing exquisite detail occaisonally.

Humidity was an issue, but the hairdryer works a treat

Celestron Edge HD 925, ASI290mm (what a sensational camera!).

I was in a bit of a pickle in terms of colour balance to go with. Super happy with the final result

CM 103, 72 and 7 degrees for 13/5, 15/5, 22/5 respectively. North is up. As always recommend not viewing in the full view for proper image scale
