Just found this Forum

Hi,

I can't believe I have not found this forum before
now , I have searched the web for Mars related sites
and this one has been just under my nose so to speak
by being on the same page as some other Astromart
forums I frequent .

It looks like there are some very knowledgable people
on this list and I plan on checking it everyday day now
and maybe contribute some of my very limited knowledge
and a few images (if the sky will ever clear now
in Oklahoma). My drawing skills are practically non
existent so images are all I have to offer , I'm not sure
if this is more of a drawing only forum though.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

Wes, this is not a drawing only forum. CCD film and webcam images, sketches, observing reports, questions, anything about the Solar System. this is a great forum with many knowledgeable folks. And, I havent seen a thread yet turn into a bickering contest, so its quite refreshing after reading some of the threads on the Equipment forum. Welcome!

Yup Wes, all are welcome here! The attention of Mars imagers seems somewhat divided between this forum and the CCD forum, but many of us who try to sketch Mars sometimes like to compare our sketches to postings of CCD images from around the same time. Then I usually scratch my head and say "What was I smoking?" :-)
