Hi all
Well this morning was my only real shot at the latest active regions on the Sun. SA has sent more dust our way (not like last week but significant).
The images were difficult to capture but here are my best quick processed images.
Through Solarmax40, 2.5 Powermate and DMK31.
Thanks for looking.

Nice work Matt! Gee, you’re a brave man – with the gusty SW winds that are buffeting us at the moment in Brisbane, not to mention the recent dust storms and their fall out, I’m not game to bring out my gear just yet!

Cheers

Dennis

Nice images. Cloud and rain here, so I am glad to see how this is going from your images Matt.

Thanks guys

The wind was not too bad - I was on the back deck and was pretty sheltered - the dust was the tricky bit - it played havoc with exposure settings as the dust was not consistant.
I wanted more but any capture of the Sun with some significant activity is good in my book.

Great detail Matt thanks for the update. We've been clouded out here too, including missing a huge prom that appeared on Saturday.
