Mars, 17th Nov

Hi guys.

Here's my image of Mars from last Thursday night, the same night I got my first Saturn. I only just got around to processing these.

The seeing was ok, not the best but I'm still fairly happy with the detail I got, including the first time I've captured the "tear drop" feature so something must be going right.

I captured for 5 minutes (3000 frames @ 10fps) and this image is a stack of 982 frames, processed in Registax and AstraImage.

Hellas and Syrtis Major are rising on the right hand side of this image.

Thanks
