Anthony Wesley (406mm Newton)
In good seeing. Mars is now 14.8" in diameter,larger than it was in the 2014 apparition,and larger than it's been at any time since 2005. It will reach 18.6" in late May.
In this image the north pole is visible at top left,the bright orange plains of Arabia at centre and dark Sinus Meridiani just below. Syrtis Major is just visible as it sets at right.
Clouds are visible across the disk.

Milika-Nicholas (355mm SCT)
The seeing was quite difficult despite the high elevation but still evinced
some reasonable detail.
