Mars in IR with animation Morning Dec 27th

Hi All,
Up early this morning to image Mars, from just before 2 am CSST finishing up just after 5 am CSST.

The seeing initially was pretty crook at about 3 / 10 and only improved marginally over the session to maybe 4 / 10.

I did capture 4 RGB's but the seeing never reached the level required to produce a result that I would post here.

Captured 6 IR images over the session and 4 of them are reasonable and are included in my animation which represents the rotation of Mars over a period of 2 hrs 40 min's.

I have also posted the final and best IR image of the session along with a labeled version of the same image for comparison.

Thanks for looking.
Regards
Trevor
