Hi Folks

Latest mars image below with such crappy weather it's been hard to get any imaging done.

coruscations attending the whole length of the luminosity, giving to the phenomena the aspect of a wrathful messenger, and not that of a tranquil body pursuing a harmless course..comet of 1680

Dave that is a great image. I am almost embarased :oops: to post my image here.



What is interesting is that the light area on your image (north) top right, does not show up in my image, even allowing for the poorer resolution. Would clouds appear that quickly?

What method of assessing quality do you use in Registax? What %? do you use an IR blocking filter?
