Hi Guys,
Managed to get out on the 20th to have another go at Mars. I think I am starting to get to grips with the collimation and focus of the scope now, and this image was a big improvement on my last attempt.
I'd really value any feedback on how I can improve my next attempt as I'm very much a learner.
All the best
Chris

That's an excellent image Lamaule. Welcome to SGL! I observed Mars last night visually and made a sketch, but in less than good conditions as the seeing was very turbulent. Your image though has confirmed some of the subtle detail I saw in the northern hemisphere. Can you remember the time of your image in UT? I think our meridians differ slightly but much of the detail is the same. EXCELLENT!
Hey Mike,
Thank you for the kind words - and it's nice to be on board. I'm not really experienced enough yet to be able to assess the seeing, but I am pretty sure it wasn't good here either as my attempts a Saturn and Jupiter weren't brilliant. I think the UT was 00:27 looking at the filename.

Hey everyone,
I've been itching to get out an I thought I'd take the plunge last night - even if the weather looked dubious. I ended up having a whale of a time, and although I went out to get Jupiter I quickly got sidetracked by Mars. Anyway, it's my first post on the forum, and judging by other's threads I wasn't alone enjoying the semi-clear skies!
