Hi All

Managed to capture these interestingly shaped solar prominences from Monday's solar imaging session. Can you spot the pegasus? :) Thanks.

Nice one Ted,

Although, it does look like a Camel with a strong man standing behind its hind quarters in the classic arm flex pose with his arms beside his head....

Just my interpretation ;)

Cheers

Hi Ted,
It has just registered to me that you use a powermate and a barlow - now I thought extra glass would be an issue - obviously not! They must pair together very well.
