The seeing was very poor, but I really wanted to get out and get another image of Mars as it heads towards opposition early December. I am really enjoying seeing the changes in it ... more and more of the sphere is visible. The clouds were moving in fast, but I was able to get one doable capture! Best 10% of just under 25000 frames. Fingers x'd for some clear nights again!!
