Hi all,

my Mars session from the 21st was quite disappointing. Local seeing was ok but the jetstream caused quite mean microturbulences blurring all finer details. The results proof the poor seeing and don't offer any HR quality at all so I decided to try a small animation:



All frames are IR-RGB composites so overall 16 AVIs have been processed. The frames don't match 100% in processing but I hope you enjoy the animation a bit.
AVIs have been captured between 20:56 and 21:46 UTC on november 21st with C9.25XLT and 4x Barlow, results downsized to 75%.
A slower animated version can be found at http://www.astro-imaging.de/astro/images/mars_2005.11.21_ani_slow.gif

Best regards & clear skies!
Oliver
