The Sun was putting on a bit of a show - there's a couple of large active regions and lots of proms. Nice change from the past weeks.
Lunt80 H-alpha, DMK41, two runs at different gammas.

Nice image, andrew! Lots of detail.

Hi Andrew
Fantastic image - what are your gamma setting for the proms?

[Solar]

A very nice image Andrew. For god sake keep up the good work and send many images, no chance over this side mate. :shrug:

[alocky]

Sounds like you guys are having a rough time of it!


Thanks Matt,
I use a 6ms exposure - gain somewhere between 400 and 450, and a gamma of 60 for the surface detail and 120 for the proms. I use Firecapture for acquisition, and to be different today I used avistack and pixinsight for deconvolution, followed by CS6 for the mosaic assembly.


Thanks Larry!

I've put the high res up on my astrobin page.
