Wow :shock: .

Stunning image Dave. I think that I should give up now!!

No sign of the South pole now. One question, where do you mount the IR/UV filter. There is no filter thread on the barlow that I use and my webcam to 31.7mm adapter is home made.

Dave,
thats a beauty, the seeing here was bad again last night with sprinklings of clearness. making your image even more impressive.
Nice colour.

Nice image Dave! a slight bit blurry, but due to that damn wind that doesn't seem to go away.

When I think of it guys, those of you churning out Mars images in the past 2 weeks or so have been doing some great photography when the conditions are considered. Good work guys!



Seanie.

Yeah the wx/seeing has been crappy. I've had to really push the image to get any sort of real detail.
Michael I got one of the screw in webcam adapters that has the built in thread. What i used before that was the barrell from an old e/p that had the internal thread.

Very Smooth Dave!
