bigger than normal as the tightening screw on my 3x Barlow broke in mid-session,forcing me to go up to about f/66 using a 5x PowerMate on my C11. Seems to have come out OK. I had the gain on the Flea3 pretty well maxed out.

I did my first trial LRGB on Mars with mitigated results as I could not get the correct color,and there are some differences (shape of Hellas ice,East of Acidia Planitia rendering,...) which leads me to be careful about interpreting it.

The blue layer shows diffuse ECB,which is not really seen on the RGB.
Here are also the RGB and LRGB alone magnified by  120%:

It's hard to decide wether the basin is frosted or if these are just clouds yet. Probably both !
The images remind me some of my first "serious" Mars observations. It was back in 1997,I was only drawing the planet at the eyepiece of my 7" newtonian,and the martian season was identical ; the Hellas basin was very bright as well. So these days I'm completing a full 15-years cycle of observations !
