It was a nice night, however the seeing was below average. I shot several 2 minute videos, each approx consisting of 30000 frames with a very high frame rate of 247 frames per second. I think this hi rate enable me to get a reasonable image stacked. With Mars reaching opposition Dec 8th , I am hoping to capture as any images as I can leading up to it, and see the changes in it's visible sphere :)
