Hi all.

The seeing conditions were terrible all night, until about 3am & then it settled out to about 8/10. I took these then, with the planet in a less than desirable position at less than 30deg elevation.

Oh well.

6" refractor + kodak easyshare. 363X & 240X

It's got me thinking I need an IR cut filter....Is this a 'must have' for mars or not?
