Mars

I'll give that a try guys! I never encountered that chromatic aberration on Jupiter / the moon which I usually image. I guessed it had something to do with Mars being quite low when I imaged it?

Yep it's more likely to be atmospheric refraction since Mars is so low down. If you don't notice it on Jupiter in the winter (when it's quite high in the sky) it's probably not a problem with your optics.

Well done nice Mars image considering it’s so low in the sky.

Got the same camera myself, can’t wait to get out and have another go at Mars

Hi Marto,

Well done very nice image. As the lads said just adjust the Blue and Red channel and you’ll get lots more detail from the image.

Well done again.
Carl.

Thanks for the comments guys, I got a slightly better one, I think I might be able to process it a little more.
Already ran it thru registax, could do with a little more sharpening?

Taken with same scope, Orion 9.25 with 3x barlow instead of 2x I previously used - the seeing was good enough to try it.
