Hi all,

finally got back to Mars at 2.30 this morning. After weeks and weeks of clouds I finally got the image below.

LX200 10" GPS UHTC
Powermate 2.5x
Toucam Pro2
Baader IR-UV cut filter

Gain 15%
1/33 sec
5 fps
Gamma 10%
Saturation 75%
Brightness 50%

Seeing 4/10

Processed in Registax3 and final in Astra Image: Deconvolution, gamma, filter

Well this is better than all my previous Mars shots despite the seeing. Mars has got real big in the last 4 weeks. Just as a comparison I will include a previous image.
