The Sun and it's gigantic Sun spot!

Hey everyone!

This is my 3rd-4th attempt at capturing features of the Sun. First time captured with my HEQ5 Pro mount (used an SLT mount before). I was quite happy with most of the footage I captured due to the result of an accurate Polar Alignment.

I am trying to get the most I can out of the PST and QHY5L-II Mono as I can with Solar. Hoping I can make some improvements.

Stefan,
well done!
Not too processed....
You may have to tilt the camera a little to see if you can control those Newton Rings...
Certainly very promising.

I think it looks awesome!

Thanks guys!

Really nice detail, I agree with Merlin, a little tilt might get rid of the rings and improve the overall presentation.

Yep, the next thing to get right!
