Sunspot 798 - Brisbane 21 Aug 2005
Hello

Here is an image of Sunspot 798 from this morning. It was a bit of a struggle as the image was shearing and oscillating on the Notebook computer display due to unsteady seeing. The image is a little "grainy" as I was not able to stack multiple images due to the image continually distorting between frames due to the unsteady atmosphere. Oh well, I guess I'm lucky to have had the chance to get the 'scope out at all!

Vixen 4" refractor
Televue x5 PowerMate
Meade LPI

Single exposure of 0.012 secs
Curves and sharpening in Corel PhotoPaint.

Cheers

Dennis
