Finally, I have an image of Mars with some detail

The image was taken with an image source camera through my 8 inch dob using an equatorial platform.

I think I can see a few features.

I did the bratinof mask focus first then align stack and the wavelet thing but no stretching is that right?

It's looking good. I have not imaged Mars since December but you have definitely got some details; that is Syrtis major. I always focus on the planet as seeing can change dramatically within few minutes.
