Hi All,

Well, turned 58 today and had an early start, up at 3am to image Mars.
The seeing was not quite a good as for my previous imaging session. We are in the middle of a heat wave and the temp at 3am was still 22 C with a warm Northerly wind blowing straight into the open slot in the dome of my observatory.

I captured 5 IR images of Mars and 1 of Procyon for a project that I am supplying data to. This is the final IR image from this session and I am pretty stoked with it.

The disk of Mars was 8.3 arc sec's diameter and Mars was 24 degrees above my local horizon. The wind affected my local seeing and due to its direction made the image somewhat unstable within the capture screen.

This image represents 2000 of the available 7500 frames from that avi.
I have presented it as suggested by Dennis, a labeled image with a copy side by side.

Thanks for looking.
Regards
Trevor
