Hi,

That is a superb image.

What magnification?

Well done

What magnification?

Magnification is meaningless when imaging.  Image scale or focal length would be the interesting data I think.

Sw200p f5 celestron  2x Barlow  with a 1.25 lp filter I'm camera nose thanks for the comments it was a frustrating night but paid off

Thats an excellent shot 

I was observing Mars last night and your image captures the details that I could see visually but your colour saturation is much stronger.

I've been trying to figure out if that pale spot on the disk is a surface area that is lighter in tone or cloud cover ?

It's a tricky customer to view and must be even trickier to image - nicely done

Thanks yes I think I need to adjust the colour in ezplanetary trial and error I suppose maybe need to turn the red down a bit

I think the pale spot is probably cloud, John.  I don't recognise it as a lighter area of the surface, at least.
