Sorry for this late post - I captured this on February 6/7 but work and other obligations kept me from completing this image. Seeing was good at times:

A-P 10" mak/cass at f45, DMK21AF04 camera, processed on a Mac with AstroIIDC, Keith's Image Stacker and Adobe Photoshop.

Alan, excellent image! It's never to late to post good Mars data. Nice color and details. Here in CT, I wasn't even able to use my scope once in Feb. Mars is still over 11" in DIA if the sky will ever clear. Thanks for posting it

Regards,
Steve
