Mars from the 10th November 2014. Unfortunately we did not start imaging until Mars had dropped to 28° elevation, the seeing was quite steady and if we had imaged soon after dusk when the planet was above 40° we think the results would have been much better... However, some reasonable detail despite the elevation and Mars apparent diameter (5.4") was recorded, dominated by Sinus Sabaeus with Syrtis Major starting to disappear on the preceding limb. Of special note is what appears to be a dust storm covering the visible portion of the Hellas Basin...
