Hi, I recorded 19 videos last night, attached is a composite from one of them, we're now 21 days past opposition. Note the large streaming layer of faint blue clouds covering a considerable portion of Mar's southern hemisphere and to the north it's nothing but severe clear over the Polar Ice Cap now. This composite is from a two minute capture at 30 fps, best 333/3600 (zero compression) processed in R4, 10" SCT at f/27, SPC900 with a Baader UV/IR cut filter. Cheers, Dan smile
