About this image

Sketch of Mars on 27 October 2020. The view was quite good despite a strong breeze and the bright Moon nearby. The South Polar Cap was quite bright I could also see some clouds to the north pole area. I used a 10mm lens through a 2x barlow to give a power of 300x. I also used an 80A blue filter to bring out more detail.
