This is best photo I could get of Mars last night. Fought clouds and wind. Tomorrow night is supposed to be better and I hope to get a better shot. I have a lot to learn about planetary imaging. I’m beginning to think this life-long learning gig isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Dave https://www.flickr.com/photos/78046474@N06/14131102745/
That's actually a really nice image. What telescope/camera?

Small and fuzzy, Dave, but there's some good detail there considering the handicaps you had to endure. Note that Mars is already noticeably gibbous. I'd say you get a B+. On Wed, May 7, 2014 at 10:20 AM, Dave Gary <davegary@me.com> wrote:
