Mars May 1st

SPX350 F39, PGRFlea3, Baader RGB filters.

Had a small clear window of weather in the evening before another wave of rain cloud swept in here in SE Qld.  Managed some fair seeing which deteriorated pretty quickly then the mist came in.  Mars looked a bit wobbly but settled slowly as it rose to 60 degrees alt and could notice the emerging phase on the left side looking a little darker.
