Mars November 4th 2020 - Skywatcher 200p

[Vectoron]

Finally got to image Mars this year after some appauling weather in the UK. 

This was my first time out using the ZWO ASI 224MC on a very cold eve.  I think i've probably the maxed out my equipment (Skywatcher 200p) and the location (back garden in the middle of an estate) for this image, so pretty pleased with the results.  Its 15% of 11000 frames stacked using Autostakkert, and Registax used to bring out some detail.

Equipment used:

• Skywatcher 200p with dual speed focuser, EQ5 mount with dual axis motors
• Tal x3 Barlow
• ZWO ASI224mc with IR Filter 
• Lenovo x270 laptop running SharpCap 
• Image Processed in Autostakkert, Registax and photoshop

Very good image. A good likeness of what can be seen visually without over processing

Fantastic image. I had a go with a similar set up and couldn"t  get anywhere near that level of detail.
