Mars

Here's my 1st attempt at Mars. I neglected to find a star to focus on so it is a bit out of focus. However if you look closely you can see the polar ice cap (white area in the lower right). This was the first bit of "clear" weather we have had in a while so I took the opportunity. However the clouds were rolling in so I was pressed for time. Hopefully I will get another chance in the near future. Also we were at almost a full moon that was very close to Mars. Oh well we will try again!
