The yellow part can be seen at the center of SPC from the image of
Cristian Fattinnanzi. In this season, the in this way deteriorated
image increased. As for this image, it understands this state clearly.
As for this area, light fog can be seen near? The North Pole is light
but is very yellow. This is fog, dust or either. Brightly in the green,
in the blue image, it is possible to be seen like the dust storm from
the light state.David M.Moore sent observation near Amazonis(150W,+20).
The point in central rather and on the left seems to be Arsia
Mons(125W,-5). Cloud on the mountain is clearly admitted from
Tharsis(100W,+10) near Amazonis(150W,+20).

All
Seeing was potentially good this morning, but the air is so dry with rapid cooling,
some breezes developed just as I was setting up. Still I managed to get some useable images.
I have been imaging the past several weeks using filters to  isolate the R and B as I felt
it gave a more scientifically reliable image set.
I was still using the TouCam original color image as itself.
I experimented this morning and used a synthesized G to make a color image using my original
R and B images.  The results look very promising!
While I may not abandon entirely imaging in color with the TCam with Mars, it would appear
with this result that imaging in separate colors, splitting out the specific color, and
combining as an RGB may give superior results in the individual colors as well as the final
color image.  I will continue to experiment.
I would solicit any input.
Thanks
