1554, (UT), 85ED with 5x Powermate Drizzle 1.5x, ASI 120mm.
It was amber rainstorm this morning, but it's quite clear tonight. Seeing very poor and I could see a shaky image even at very low power.
The Martian dust storm seems cleared up, maybe the best image taken this apparition for me.
I has been fine tuning my Nexstar mount, a circular wooden base was added for better balance, preventing tip over. The controller cable was made longer so that the shake from the cable won't induce vibration to the mount now. The base was still unstable, and I placed an eyepiece cover below to stop the vibration, since I've only four small pads below. Some more would be added shortly.
