Sunspots with Lunt Solar Wedge

Hey all,
This is my capture from this morning of the Sunspot AR1117 and friends, image details as follows;

Lunt solar wedge and ED80 telescope
dmk41 webcam and 2.5x Powermate
HEQ5 mount with Solar Autoguider
8 minutes of video stacked in Registax, curves and levels adjusted

I am really happy with the Solar wedge, the image offers more than my previous whitelight filters, even visually the image is just plain beautiful. I needed to use the powermate as I did not have enough inwards focus on the ED80 without it.
Cheers,

Trent
