Slightly better conditions this morning, and the 742nm IR filter certainly helps a lot!

cheers, Bird

Another nice picture Bird with great image scale

Very nice Anthony,

Lovely contrast and a wealth of detail, sort of makes me salivate a bit in anticipation of opposition.

Regards
Trevor

Thanks Trevor, I've added some green and blue to make a colour image as well, but I think the IR image is still the better one.

cheers, Bird

Wow. More outstanding Mars images.

I really had no idea "state of the art" for amateurs imaging Mars had come along so far. Thanks for showing - inspiring stuff!

Rob, the state of the art is a fair bit further along than this... check out

Hmmm. Pretty mind blowing stuff. I'm sure he makes it look a heck of a lot easier than it is of course. Thanks for the link too Anthony.

That's a beauty, Anthony.

Thanks!

Wow, what a load detail you have captured there.
Well done again.

Nice image Anthony. Heaps of detail too.

Amazing detail in those pics.
I am still yet to gaze upon this beauty through my scope yet.

Anthony,

You really are turning out some superb images. If they linked images are state of the art then you are mighty close.
