My first Mars

[Helen]

I took this last month (2 November), but hadn't processed it until today. Pleased to have got some detail. Can't remember the full details, but C8 with a 2.5 powermate, unmodded toucam, captured with iris, probably couple of minutes worth, stacked and processed in Registax.

Tips for improvement welcomed as always (might get another go tomorrow if my cold improves sufficiently for me to be let out!)

Very nice that Helen. Bet it's whetted your appetite to have another go soon.

No excuses for your tardiness in processing this fine image Helen. :nono: What else was there to do during all the cloudy nights?

Thanks guys. I had problems getting off the laptop, it lost the rather large avi... (poor excuse I know ). Looks like I might get another opportunity this week (just need to get rid of this heavy cold ).

Never mind the cold. Get out there with a bottle of whisky (for medicinal purposes only) and I reckon you will improve even more on an excellent image.
