Description

This time conditions were much better and Mars at a higher altitude than last time when I took pictures. This was also a test for my new 10" RC. I am quite happy with its performance. During post-processing I used drizzle techniques (factor 1.5). Therefore the pixel scale is 0.13 “/px.

Having a closer look, you may recognize (upper left) Olympus Mons.
