More great work Tony, both planets are well taken but particularly with your Mars which is (still) brighter and so a little easier than Saturn it hardly looks like you need a drive.
If you were not getting nice collection of different sized and faced Mars images I would say, you need more of a challenge as these targets seem to be getting too easy for you! Now that you have all those Barlows you might consider showing us your Neptune and Uranus before you eventually go to the dark side and start imaging M33 or other DSO wonders like Michael and the many other talented posters here.
In the meantime Mercury might also be possible (a first for me if I get it) or nearly so by the end of the month...although I at last, might have trouble getting a low enough western profile.
Since you missed Jupiter here is tonight's capture before it clouded over. It is a pretty noisy image but twilight has not been a good imaging time lately here and I was mainly focusing on Venus.
