White light full disk mosaic 1 Feb 2014 from the Doghouse Observatory

[h0ughy]

Taken today with DMK51 through my 127ED and baader solar wedge, it comprises of 14 images (600 frames per video) to make the white light mosaic. That sunspot group AR11967 (aka AR11944) is massive - several earth diameters (must learn how to do a scale reference)

the seeing was affected by intermittent cloud, wind and cruddy turbulence, not good for solar viewing

A large version can be found here (http://solarchat.solarastronomy.org/media/kunena/attachments/1091/video0062-14-02-01-14-21-11_g3_b3_ap5199DMK51FDBWrs2COLtpz.j pg)

did i mention the seeing was cr@p:rofl::sadeyes:

and here is a version with a scale to indicate the size of the sunspot complex (http://solarchat.natca.net/media/kunena/attachments/1091/video0062-14-02-01-14-21-11_g3_b3_ap5199DMK51FDBWrs2COLtpz2s cale.jpg)
