Best Mars video found!

Hi all,

Well I found a video from my one night of good seeing on the 3rd of October. I think I just had slightly better focus on this one which was shot at 11000mm fl. This one was 15 minutes earlier than the one I decided to process before and you can see Olympus Mons much better on the sunset edge. I resized this one 50%. Wish I would have had my filter wheel that night 8O Its a stack of 480, shot in B&W with a IR passband filter and my 18" Starmaster. 7-8/10 seeing.

Hi Mike,

That is one very impressive image! I had my best night of seeing this year on October 3rd, here in Massachusetts. I guess we'll soon be in the same boat, imaging in subzero conditions now that winter is almost here, brrrr. That is until you get your B&B in Baha. grin

Hi Mike,

Excellent!, I think it is a slight improvement over the other one.


Thanks,
