Martin R Lewis (222mm Newton)
Here is Mars in seeing which was markedly inferior to that seeen for Saturn which was much lower in the SE.
I never have good seeing when any planet lies to the SW-W which places it over the town centre.
The dreaded 'edge-rind' effect is back which seems to be a combination of a type of seeing causing momentary doubling of
the image combined with the planet being past/before opposition and giving a much higher contrast edge which produces a
ringing effect in the camera.
Dark Tharsis volvanoes and Olympus Mons,as others have pointed out.

Christopher Go (Celestron C11)
Seeing was terrible this evening. The area is around Syrtis Major and Syrtis Minor. Not a lot of cloud activity here.
