This is one is bit
late. Seeing was a touch better, though
deteriorated slightly for the last image.
The first Tcam image was 200 images combined.
The RGBL image turned out well. Lots of detail.
Course, as I like to tell everyone and to throw cold water on my efforts, "With Mars so
large now, everyone is an expert imager now!"
Mars looks fairly quiet in this set. Perhaps a small disturbance
preceding and adjacent to Syrtis Major.
That area tends to bright anyhow though.
Thanks

Clay, the really sad part of it all is,
it could just as well say circa 2003!
Thanks

This should make us all appreciate this
current apparition just a bit more!
Enjoy!

Seeing seemed good, but images turned out a bit softer than
I would like. I wish Mars was always
this size! I downsized these 10 percent.
Morning limb Arc irregular. Some clouds
lingering over Mare Tyrrhenum.
On the evening
terminator the Olympus Mons and Tharsis complex are showing some evening cloud
tops.
Olympus Mons
visible in Red on the evening terminator.
SPC
not as bright.
NPH
increasing in size and brightness.
Thanks

Working this
weekend so just got this set totally processed.
Seeing was above average, but bouncy and deteriorating.
I note a decrease
in NPH activity over my image on Aug. 17. Dust somewhere in the North? I see a very slight bright area in the
preceding North.
Small
clouds over Olympus Mons and Tharsis area.
Thanks
