hi this was the last mars pic i took at 0005 hrs on 6th jan this year(pls check with calsky from Chennai) but seems to have come better than my expectation and my conclusion is nothing beats seeing (if collimation and focus are right) http://tinyurl.com/69ra67Thanks Suresh\ LX 200 10 inch f6.3 scope x 2x barlow 1600 frames stackes in Registax

Suresh, that is absolutely superb, there's loads of detail there! Now then some may think I'm going slightly bananas at this point, but I looked at the image and immediately saw a face in it, and I thought "That's Norman Lamont" (Chancellor of the Exchequer in the early 1990s). Here's the comparison.... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/2260916.stmCan anyone else see it or is just my imagination working overtime?? P.

Very nice image Dr Suresh. A wealth of detail on there. Is that a division in the polar cap?. Looks very striking!

Hi Suresh,
Well done on a fine image you can see why they call it the face of Mars. I still have loads of Mars images to process just don't have the time. You got plenty of detail and the ice caps. One thing I've learned Mars may be close to us but is the most difficult planet to image. Keep it up.
Carl.
