Details:

Awesome features on mars. These are dust-storms that race at great speeds and sometimes last for months. Images taken with a 12" SCT and a WO-ASI120M CCD camera.

This is a fantastic, almost mystical image of Mars but I am at a loss to recognize the visible features.
Could you please specify the day and time in UT when you caught this picture.
Thanks

Thanks Apollo it was a long tired night but conditions were right unfortunately I borrow the scope from work. That makes two of us wanting to have a 12 or 14 scope:)
