Images of the Sun today 17-5-12

A test run of gear today,never ever looked through a scope at the sun,or done any solar images.So these are my first attempts.

The view through a Vixen ED 81 with 13 mm Naglar type 6 looked quite sharp around midday.I did not have a huge amount of time,but enough to do a basic test run.

Any pointers for focusing a dslr on the sun welcomed,this seemed tricky.iso 200,speed 1/320

Thanks for looking,Chris
