Nice detail coming through on this one Rob! Which scope did you use?

Nice image. On my screen there does seem to be a bit of an artefact in the background.

That was with the 8" Stuart. It's been so wet over here that I don't trust leaving the Dob out in the weather with a chipboard mount:eek: And the forecast is for continuing showers

Thanks Michael,

There is some crud that I missed when cleaning up the background.

R6 seems to include a lot of smeared frames which leaves a lot of ghost images in the backgroung. I find them distracting and so I try to Photoshop them out, with varying success

They don't show up on my CRT monitor which I like to use for processing, as much as the Flat Screen, so I missed that lot

More detail does seem to be coming through doesnt it. You just need calm air with the big one. completely out of action here

Looking good Rob, lots of detail especially considering the seeing

I'm just hoping the weather round here improves enough to catch Mars at its best over the next month or two!
