First go at Sun with PST & DMK21

I bought a Coronado PST that turned out to suffer from worst case of PST rust you've seen.
Today I managed to borrow a whole gold tube with front element from friend's PST & have a crack at the Sun.
PST was set up on a tripod with Manfrotto geared head & DMK21AU04.AS.
Also first time processing solar images, tried few different methods.
A lot of trial & error.
Not the best, but am quite happy with my first attempt.
