Thanks for your comments, Bob and Milton. It will really be fun to see what results from this Mars apparition - nice high sky position and so much improvement in tools and techniques for planetary imaging since two years ago.

At the rate that Mars is getting closer and better positioned, every day will bring a new best Mars of 2005!

best regards,

Alan

Hi Allan;

All I have to say is "WOW". That's the best Mars I've seen so far in 2005.
