Hi All,


Tuesday morning was one of those rare skies with Danko 4/5 seeing.

Mars was a little more than 15 arc.sec in diameter.  Both the

markings around Mare Erythraeum and Solis Lacus were videoed

intermitantly over a four hour period using a 7" Questar titanium at

f/35 through a Sony XCD-x710CR fire wire video camera at 15 - 30

frames/sec for 140 t0 70 sec. Uncompressed capture was with 

Astro IIDC 2.00.02 and analysis was with Keith's Image Stacker 4.2.


To keep from using up the groups disc space, I have displayed

these photos on my web pages.

The jpg files being about 1/5 to 1/10 the size of the tiff files are

best for dial up modems.  If broad band is available, the tiffs show

slightly more detail.


Enjoy,


Mike Snider
