Thank you very much for the comments! Also glad to have an international home for my captures again, Mike
Getting into solar imaging is very rewarding, Alexandra. I'm into it for about a year now and hooked since then. Commercial solutions are quite expensive though (my setup was under 1400AUD gladly). Provided you get the system working, solar imaging is quite similar to lunar imaging, but more diversified. While the moon is rather static, the sun is very dynamic in the Halpha line. Even now with our quiescent sun.
I'll help out with solar images anytime, Matt, and hope you get better weather for your excellent images soon.
