Here is this morning's effort at Sol... we hit a few snags today... HDD full, and a few software bugs, so didn't manage to get the full set unfortunately.

I've done 2 versions of AR11112 trying to bring out more detail.

BTW ignore the comments on the close ups... I lied... I actually used the C11, with the Thousand Oaks white light filter and the DMK 41...:rolleyes:... I'll have to fix that up...

That is awesome. I've just got a PST and have been wondering whether I'll get into imaging with it or not. I'm really looking forward to following sunspots etc. Your photos make me enthused all over again! :thanx:

Nice work Al. As per usual I really enjoy looking at you full disk image. I am hoping for some nice solar seeing this week to get some nice data if I can.

Thanks Alexandra. The PST is a great little scope:thumbsup:. You'll love it... especially with the sun getting busier.;)

Thanks Paul. I almost feel like I know what I'm doing with the full disc shots:lol:.

Cool Al!
It is a very impressive disc at the moment!
Will you be able to image as the large filament as it rounds the limb?
I am considering taking my scope to work to do some lunch time imaging!?

Thanks Matt.

Not a chance today. Riding the BMW to work today then in to Bathurst for a service, then visiting 2 friends in hospital tonight who each had a baby on Sunday...
