H-Alpha Surface Features Comparison 24 Hours

[Star Catcher]

Hi All

On the 19th and 20th November the seeing conditions were good enough to image the same area of interest at high magnification to obseve the changes in surface features.

I have attached a side by side comparision to give you an idea of how some structures changed whilst others reamined relatively static over a 24 hour period. Thanks.

Beautiful resolution. It's mainly when I'm preparing a mosaic that I notice the change over minutes, but usually it's barely noticeable due to seeing and not this dramatic.
What scope/camera/processing were you using?
Regards,
Andrew.

Thanks Andrew. I use a Lunt 80Tha and DMK41 camera and 5x mag with barlows. Processing via avistack, PS and maximdl.

Hi Ted,
Great hi-res images showing some subtle changes in this AR.

We can see the shape of the magnetic field been changed as well as the heigth of the filament on left of the frames.

Great image and great presentation,

Out standing images Ted. Lovely resolution and processing. Now that I am finally home I will get back into solar imaging again.

Ted,
Superb resolution!
You say barlows..are you double stacking them?

Thanks Narayan

Yes I am using a 2.5x powermate and a 2x shorty barlow giving me something just over 2800mm focal length.
