Thats one fine image of Mars, and I like your choice of telescope, what a nice instrument. Which configuration do you use the most newtonian or cassegrain.
Thanks! I mostly use the Cassegrain mode. It is very difficult to collimate in newtonian mode.

There is a tree very close to the east side of my observatory, so it is 6:00 before I am able to image it, but it is high enough much earlier.
