Mars from Melbourne this morning March 19

Well although the centre of the high was right over Melbourne in time for the GP, the sky at about 1:30am this morning was never quite still thanks to high/medium level winds in the upper atmosphere according to Skippy Weather.

So average seeing conditions, but we must all make do with what we can get, and Mars never ceases to amaze!

Taken with an extra long extension tube on my 12.5" f/5 and 5 x Powermate as well as resampled 1.3x in Registax.
