The first shot is great David! Easily your best! Well done.

If you don't mind me offering some advice though, I wouldn't get carried away with resampling (2x or 3x or 4x), the image quality just doesn't stand up to it and all you get is the high contrast features showing but nothing else. And it adds in a lot of grain.

There's nothing wrong with itty bitty Mars images through a 10" dob with no tracking. Worry about image scale when you get your tracking sorted, then you can stack the barlows or get a 5x powermate like I did.

At least with the small images, they're sharper and show more of the finer detail.

Just my opinion though, feel free to ignore me.

Well done on a good shot.
