The good seeing continued again last night.  This time we had excellent
seeing over the course of the session,with only a thickening haze and
occasional passing cloud to obscure the view.  Unfortunately,the clouds
ended the session before I could capture Saturn.

A bright spot is near the meridian in the NPC and the dark peak of Olympus
Mons is shown surrounded by a bright cloud.  The Tharsis region was visible
earlier in the evening with impressive cloudiness,but is on the setting in
this image.




While waiting for the sky to settle down (it's clear as a bell,but blowing
about 30 knots here tonight),I'm going through my data from last week and I
was able to locate this image from three nights prior to when I first
reported seeing the terminator projection.  I highlighted the region that I
think shows a very slight sign of the feature.  Mars was just at 41 degrees
altitude,but the seeing was quite good at the time.

The Tharsis orographics were brilliant on the PM limb. There appears to be a trce of dust over the AM side of the NPC.
