Mars at Opposition

Dusted off the old Celestron C8 telescope to capture this bright and colorful planet, Mars.

Tonight, it is opposite the sun, big and bright all night long.

Not great seeing, with some turbulent atmosphere.

With a shorty 2x barlow. Still need more focal length.

Nikon Z 6 ,Celestron C8
1/80s f/10 at 2032.0mm*2 iso200
2x shorty barlow
At stack of 31 frames in PS.

Very cool shot. Like the colors. Sadly, there is never enough focal length.
