Nice Tom, especially for the camera you are using. I must take a look at Mars soon.

Nice one Tom. I guess Mars season is officially open!

Looking forward to the upcoming Mars opposition. Even though the circumstances are pretty poor, it's the first one since I've had some half decent kit to image with.

Thanks for showing your work. You are very prolific.

Thanks Paul and Ray. The whiteish blob at the top of the disc (not the pole at the bottom) doesn't look like it is an imaging artefact. I don't know much about Mars imaging at all, could it be clouds?

[von Tom (Tom)]

Thanks Ivan, no worries

Real nice to see mars like that Tom, Looking forward to the red planet season ? hey, that extra white could be where the rovers were digging up all that ice, Lol
