Details:

After too many nights of cloudy skies I have finally managed to get some images of the Red Planet. And almost at the maximum approach to Earth. Some very interesting details in the Blue channel, with a lot of clouds activity and a very bright polar cap. This was also evident in the eyepiece at 550x. Starting from now, the planet is getting farther and farther away, night after night. Hopefully I will get a few more nights of clear weather and good seeing to observe and image the Red Planet before it gets to small in the eyepiece/camera.

Sorry I just was the answers in the other image.

So I see you only imaged in RED and BLUE R(G)B

Then you made your Green from the R and the B?

Thank you Philip! Yes, the Green channel was made automatic via WinJupos from the Red and Blue channels. Each channel was acquired in 100 seconds periods.
