Solar shenanigans

[AstroJunk]

Its been a rather epic weekend for solar astronomy, things are beginning (seemingly) to be hotting up at long last with plenty of prominence action and active zones clearly visible in CaK.

I've installed a pier in the Solar Dome, and am quite amazed at how much it improves the stability over the tripod - and that's very handy when trying to hand tune Ha scopes!

I am in awe of your setup, the dehumidifier plumbed to outside?

Great going Jonathan, good to see some action returning, nice closeup color shot too...

Thanks, I'm getting quite excited about the prospect of an end to solar minimum!

And yes, the aircon unit is permanently attached to a vent in the wall - nice to have an icy blast on a hot day with the scopes :)

I am looking forward to the new solar cycle myself,Jonathan.
Great pics. :)

Great captures, and good to see a further increase in activity. Had a quick look myself today so thanks for the heads up too!
