Description

This is a complete rework of the data captured on 8 October, splitting it into 3 separate images showing slightly different aspect as the planet rotated. After discussing my previous single image version and taking advice that is was 'very foreboding', I have dialled back the wavelet sharpening considerably. Whilst I like a 'red' Mars, for this version I've left the colours at the natural sandy hue after building each R-RGB image in WinJupos, then applying the auto colour balance adjustment in Registax 6. Most capture information is detailed on the annotated image.
