Occultation of Mars from Rousay, Orkney

About this image

A video of the Mars occultation - it does not really look like a graze, so probably needed to be a little further south.

Was not very successful trialing the Seestar timelapse - but the result came out not too bad.

No timing information captured in the video, so not really useful.
