Hi,

Image from a couple of days back. When conditions are right, apperture always rule. Visually the image was superb with lots of details. Well worth getting out of bed early.

Regards,

Angel

Angel,

An excellent image of Mars showing much detail over the Syrtis Major region. Several albedo featuress are visible including Mare Tyrrhenum, Syrtis Minor, Zea Lacus (center of Hellas), Hybaleus Extension, Hellespontus, and Sinus Sabaeus among others. We all look forward to your future images of the red planet.
