Saturn and Mars 30 June 2018

I was pleasantly surprised to see some nice seeing last night around 11pm. I had slightly prepared for the chance by uncovering the telescope in the late afternoon, but never expected to see good seeing. Probably the best seeing this season so far, but I finally have all three planets on the board for the year. I captured Saturn and Mars. Mars is showing little if any real detail and I don't even recognise the area I captured.

I reckon the seeing was around 7/10 or slightly higher. There were some very still moments for the Saturn captures.
