Details:
I imaged Mars on the morning of 08-19-22 from my observatory in Manorville, NY. My imaging setup was a ZWO ASI224 MC camera with a UV/IR cut filter and a ZWO (ADC) 1.25" Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector adapter in a Baader Planetarium Carl Zeiss 2x Barlow Lens all in a MoonLite focuser. My telescope was an Edge HD 14'' OTA on a AP1600GTO mount. The seeing was between a 2/5 to 3/5 .
