Thanks Dennis, I'm curious you haven't scored with Big Red given your Saturn image looks great - unless you've got some localised seeing issues that effect the early evening (say imaging over a road or tiled roofs?). Could it be an issue with settings (over exposure?) or focus on Mars that is a bit trickier than Saturn maybe. When you have Mars in the field in K3CCD what are you reading on the light meter? - I generally aim for around 150ish...

regards,
