02/18/2008 - RED MARS
Here is another disappointing attempt at capturing Mars. This image was acquired early in the morning on February 18, 2008 from Port Orchard, Washington, using an 8" Meade LX200 and a Meade DSI Pro II. Seeing conditions were not bad but my alignment was, making it difficult to keep the planet steady and in the FOV for optimal focus and processing.
