Mars and Jupiter on 6th September

[PembrokeSteve]

 

Hi,

I managed to get some imaging done on the evening of Sunday 6th September.  Not the best of conditions with lots of fast moving "wispy" high level cloud, spoiling the fun.
However I managed to image Mars for the first time this year.  Used Jupiter as a warm up while waiting for Mars to rise.
Looking forward to more Mars imaging sessions in the next few weeks and will get out the Barlow Lens next time !

Telescope:  Vixen VC200L
Mount:  Skywatcher NEQ 6 Pro
Camera:  ZWO178MC

Mars Image:  2,439 AVI frames at 1920x1200 camera resolution, using 190 Gain, via Sharpcap.  Processed with Autostakkert, then tweaked in Registax, Affinity and GIMP.
Jupiter Image:  1,603 AVI frames at 1920x1080 camera resolution, using 190 Gain, via Sharpcap.  Processed with Autostakkert, then tweaked in Registax, Affinity and GIMP.

Regards,

Steve

Two very nice images but in particular the Jupiter image as it is very difficult right now. But you have captured some really nice detail.
