Mars 4/5th January 2010

A bit of a delay in posting these due to a 26hr power cut brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr no heating in deep snow and -6C! Anyway power is back and I can reconnect with the world.

A couple of images here on the night of 4/5th Jan. A small white cloud is visible at lower left on both images, about 35 min apart.

Wow - what lovely photos - well done Peter. I really must get my powertank built quickly. I want to see what I can get with the C9.25 and DMK21

[resonator77]

very impressive images

what barlow did you use Astroman?

Always have had a problem with IC capture settings imaging Mars, do you remember your exposure and fps?

thanks in advance

[astroman001]

I used a 3x barlow. 60 fps at 1/60th sec, gain slider to keep histogram below saturation.
