Mars last night 14dec - Mewlon 7in

Hi All, managed a few avis last night of Mars, this time through my Mewlon 180 but the seeing was quite appalling (3-4/10) - this coupled with the rapidly shrinking face meant not a hell of a lot to see. Still there are some features and the north polar hood... and it's not likely to get much better size wise

, so here tis.

cheers

Nice image Robert!

Considering the size of Mars and the seeing it's a great result.

thanks for the kind comments guys. It'd be great to get one good nights seeing to see what the Mewlon can really do before Mar's shrinks into the ether...
