The images reached from Pellier. The prominence which was
improved from Mare Cimmerium(220W,-20) to the north can be
well seen. Also, Cerberus(210W,+15) which is in the north
of this, too, is well caught. Cerberus seems to have become
thick after the major dust storm in 2001. It seems that
there is a place to have done hollow for every 120 W in SPC.

Hi all, here is a Mars image from this morning. Despite my unfavourable
latitude I find that the observing conditions are really improving and I
didn't expect to see so "much" on these images... The "Lowel band" is
impressive.
Finally I can work with the W38A filter to make a blue image but it lets IR
pass (a faint IR Mars was barely visible on the screen, several arcseconds
shifted from the blue wavelenghts) so I need to wait for a new equipment.
Best wishes
