Mars 'from bad to not too bad' collage.

[asimov (John)]

Hi all.

I didn't spend a lot of time doing this collage, but it gives one a rough idea of my advancement over the last month or so at photographing & stacking/processing mars with my kodak easyshare on the 6" achro refractor.

It's in rough chronological order, but also in order of advancement as well. Most of the real bad shots taken when the seeing was really bad I deleted, so these are the best of the worst

I'm pretty happy with my progress so far, & now that I have a toucam it can only get better! (I hope)

Mars #19 is my 1st shot with the toucam, but I thought I'd throw it in here anyway. My personal favorite is #18.

It's certainly been a great journey thus far...as far as taking astro-photos with a kodak easyshare...talk about frustrating! Wouldn't have missed it for the world though! I like a challenge, & this experience was certainly that!

Thanks to everyone here that helped me with advise along the way too!

That's so interesting to see the progress Asi.

My favs are #13, #18, and #19 looks nice to me.

Well done mate.

Thanks guys! I appreciate your comments.

If it was'nt for this foreign material on the kodak sensor I would continue to ring it's lil' neck! Now the toucam is gonna get a healthy squeezing instead!
