First attempt at the sun

Sun with my lunt and DMK41 first go in false colour.

Nice first Locki! Lots of details on the disc and nice prominences. One thing though, the false colour appears a bit pinkish on my computer screen.

Nice result, Jon

Thanks guys. Yeah my screen isn't callibrated or anything so it is possible it is a bit askew. I found focus a bit difficult with a black shirt over me and the laptop screen on my balcony trying to work it out, some sort of box I assume in the future to keep glare off is going to be the go. Also, do people prefer imaging the sun at any particular time of the day? This was late afternoon.
