Dear Friends,

 

Attached is the mars image from this morning (15th July 2003).

 

The skies weather here has been cloudy most of the time for this month and this morning I managed to steal a few minutes when a small clearing occurs thru the clouds which allows me to image for about 30mins.

 

Seeing was 5-7/10 and transparency 4-7/10 (thin high clouds)

 

As usual the images are done with the 250mm Takahashi mewlon @ f/67.5 with the Televue 5x powermate + Philips Toucam Pro and the Baader UV-IR blocking filter. I've experimented with a combination of televue 2x+1.8x barlow for a lower F ratio in the region of f50 which I will process the AVI and send them out this evening.

 

Best Regards

Subject: mars image 15th July 2003 - 1959UT - super natural processing

 

Dear friends,

 

Here's 2nd and final image from this morning (15th July 2003). This is done with the televue 2x+1.8x barlow.

 

I've processed this image with my new "super natural" method.

 

You may compare with the 1941ut image posted earlier on, I think the details for this image is still decent.

 

Stack of 1000 out of 1800 frames toucam pro at 1/25sec gain 50%.

David,

 

Nice image you had there. The raw is certainly good as well. It was a nice trip up Kitt Peak, finally the sleepy bug caught me and I felt asleep 90% of the time on the way back to phoenix.
