Description

I've been studying Mars a bit to see what features I could find and name on the image I took on the above date. I do not claim to be 100% accurate but think that most of it could be confirmed. The image may be over-sharpened a bit but I was mainly interested in how much could be identified so forgive the over-sharpening. This is RGB combined with 10,000 frames of each color. Frame rates and exposures varied depending on filter. The image was captured with my Fx2 with the f8 configuration and a 2x Barlow yielding approximately 5800 mm EFL. Seeing was a little better than average here in the Mid West and the smoke had blown away for the evening making the transparency quite good.

Description: Adjusted color balance slightly and added some other features. My hope is that it will help other Mars observers/imagers to identify some of the features. I do not claim to be 100% correct so if you see something that is wrong, forgive the mistake/s.
