About this image

Two images of Mars taken nearly five hours apart in better than usual 'seeing'. I'm still experimenting with getting the right image scale for the QHY camera and although the second image is the closest yet I still need to make some fine tuning adjustments before I can get the optimum image scale and maimum possible detail with my set-up for Mars.
