This is a re-post of an image a friend of mine took from Mansfield Dam at Lake Travis.
He just took the photo with a Sony point an shoot camera through the eye piece.
Not bad Dave!
Mars 2003 Opposition
Posted by Jason under Planetary
Mars was closer to the Earth then it will ever be for the rest of my life. I was fortunate the weather cooperated and allowed me to get a descent photo. It was taken with a 6″ Meade Scmidt-Newtonian refractor. The imager was a web cam modified to fit the telescope.
