Hi,

It's been awhile since I had a color image of Mars and I found out I am a little out of practice smile

18" Reflector, Lumenera LUO75C camera, 60fps, stack of 1600 frames from 6900.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

Hi Wes,

An excellent image with very nice color and processing. It must be tough to keep track of all the different settings you use with all the cameras you have.

I think you've still got the mars touch, Wes smile

A fine color rendition, beautifully processed - it shows the dust activity very well as a golden swath from Chryse southward.

best,
Alan
