Hi all
Thanks to Houghy for reminding me earlier today of this nice sunspot, so I got it with the 10 inch F5.6 newtonian. Unmodded 300D camera, with MPCC coma corrector. 4x 1/300th sec ISO 100 images stacked. Taken through a thousand oaks full aperature glass solar filter. Processed in photoshop. Some unsharp masking done.

Another brilliant image - well done. Thanks for showing us guys stuck in the office what we could be doing if we wasn't stuck in the office.

A fantastic image Scott. Whilst we were suffering thunderstorms and hail in Brissie, I was lucky enough to obtain an exclusive, private view via e-mail from your agent Mr H0ugh, before this image was released to the public!

Onya Scott, nice shot :thumbsup:. Good to see you give the DSOs a break :poke: :) I'd like to see what you could do with a ToUcam though ;) :lol:

Thanks all :)
Happy to share, yes the weather was co operative at the time, though the cold snap and cloud has come in now.
Solar imaging is easier then hand guiding DSO images too hehehe

Loverly work.
It really is quite a size isn't it?
What has been the biggest sunspot you guys have observed?
