Got a few breaks in the cloud this afternoon.

Decided to image in CaK here (http://www.atscope.com.au/BRO/gallery86.html)

Thanks guys.

As it turns out, the little Taka is a great match with the Skynyx as the solar disk nicely fills the frame.... (the uploaded image was not cropped)

That said, a little more FL is probably worth investigating.

Terrific CaK!
I love the darkening around the limb - really makes the image leap out at you - thanks for sharing!

Ah...as per the web page. New Q FSQ106, Skynyx 2-2. Lunt CaK B1200 module.

As I mentioned earlier, the Taka at just 530mm FL matches the Skynyx 2-2 (1600x1200 pixels ) very well.
