Mars 12-01-22

I finally put all my equipment back in the observatory. I got in an imaging slump ever since Hurricane Ian. I took this shot with the Celestron 9.25 Edge , 2.5 Powermate and the ASI 224mc camera. The seeing was pretty good last night a little above average. I processed most of it in Astrosurface and did some final touches in Affinity photo and Topaz sharpen

Thanks Ben, I'm going to try capture the whole surface.

Great job with this Chuck. It's great to hear that you have your gear back in your observatory too. I am liking the detail you captured.

That is really great Chuck, really looks like you have LOTS of excellent detail. Nice to know what that scope can do on planetary. I am not familiar with the software package Astrosurface that you mention - I'll have to go check that out...

Thanks Mike, Astrosurface does it all and very good. I haven't tried deep sky yet.
