Description

Recently tried my had with planetary imaging again. I changed my technique in registax and vast improvements on my Jupiter and Saturn images this year compared to last year. I decided to try the same editing strategy from my best captures of mars last year during opposition. I was unaware that I needed to decrease the histogram on the blue filter and therefore had a terrible blue halo and rind effect. I cropped this out using GAME in pixinsight which gives the appearance of a full disc that was not the case 2 weeks after opposition. Overall I am happy with my progress and always fun to see leaps when processing old data.
