High Res H-alpha Transit.

Haven't got around to the prominence data yet.... but have to say I'm pleased with the detail in the disk.

This is a *large* image. I reduced it about 40% to be web-friendly,
but at 2500 pixels a side, probably not i-pad friendly.

Wow! This is great.
Fantastic detail.
Love it.

[Steffen]

You should be, this is spectacular.



The new iPad probably handles this better than most computer screens. Except for the new Macbook Pro, of course ;)

Cheers
Steffen.

That's excellent! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

[callingrohit]

Simply gorgeous :clap:

:bowdown:

[Peter Ward]

Thanks indeed.



Ta Marc!



Just comes up as a icon on my "new" i-pad. Is there a setting one can make to alter that?



Thanks... pretty chuffed with the really fine detail, it will probably end up as my standard solar processing technique from now.

[Steffen]

Not sure what it's unhappy about. Can you see it if you visit the image link directly?

[Peter Ward]

Nope. My 64gig i-pad just shows an icon. Looks nice on a 32" display though :)

[Paul Haese]

Nice work Pete. Colour is quite pleasing and the detail is fab.

[Steffen]

This has got me interested now… I'm going to get hold of an iPad and see for myself what's going on there :shrug:

Cheers
Steffen.

Lovely!

So is that using the Coronado SMF90 on the AP130 scope?

[Poita]

Shows up perfectly on my ipad2 :question:

[Peter Ward]

Yes, found the culprit. iOS does not handle large progressive .jpg's.
I converted the data to an optimized .jpg and now loads fine :thumbsup:

[Peter Ward]

Ta Paul...pity I didn't have the time to get it done before CWAS



Yes.

[Tamtarn]

Wow, this is stunning Peter. Brilliant work!

I'm pretty happy with the lack of processing artifacts i.e ghosts and "double-data" (that looks like fine structure, but is simply imperfect layering) in this one.

Glad you enjoyed the final result.

[alocky]

I do like the title of the image as well. Needless to say I also had the 'Police' soundtrack a few times while I was imaging on the day.
The fine structure on the sun is magnificent. I'd love to learn the details of your processing sequence to determine if it's my equipment or my workflow that's letting me down.
cheers,
Andrew.

Hi Peter
Sorry I missed this - it is awesome - I hope you do not mind but I mono'd it on my computer to just have a look - it is stunning in B&W too! 10/10!

[bartman]

Once again Peter......
Awesome......
Works on the iPad, and I would love to see the hi res on one of those new MBP's!!!!!
Thanks Peter!
Bartman

[Peter Ward]

No, thank you, feedback either way is always appreciated!


Yep, it has to look good in B&W ..kinda like Casablanca :)



Humm...my processing sequence might be a powerpoint presentation at an AAIC one day :question:

Good pick-up! the esoteric file name was indeed based on Gordon Sumner's lyrics :D

[Paul Haese]

Hmmm now that is interesting. ;) Maybe next year.

[Tosong]

That's awesome dude, in the literal sense :D Congrats!
