Astrophoto: Mars – 12/12/2022

In my eyes i reached the minimum goal this year, in the subject of making planetary photos. Neither more nor less.

The last planetary photo for me this year. At least I successfully got my Mars photo shortly after opposition and “completed” my planet round this year after taking photos of Saturn and Jupiter already with my “new” equipment.
