Hi all,

The clouds have not been too cooperative for me this month, but when they do part, the seeing has been pretty good. Mars looks quite cloudy in this image.

Fine image Paul!

When it's been clear around here recently, I've usually had the opposite luck--- terrible seeing. Sometimes I can't even determine a focus point!

Paul, Excellent Mars! Nicely processed. With the bad weather lately, I may not get another chance at the red planet. Thanks for posting it.

Regards,
Steve
