Mars Dec. 23 a.m.

Jason, excellent shot! Have you tried taking the uncompressed avi and splitting it into RGB channel bmps using aviraw? Then try processing the RGBs separately in Registax, then combining them at the end. I started doing this with my Toucam data right before I went exclusively to DMK mono. Thanks for posting it

Freddy, excellent image! Your best Mars yet, even more impressive under those conditions. Try rebalancing the blue down a bit, maybe around 20%. Thanks for posting

Alan, excellent image! It's never to late to post good Mars data. Nice color and details. Here in CT, I wasn't even able to use my scope once in Feb. Mars is still over 11" in DIA if the sky will ever clear. Thanks for posting it
