Sunspot 923 still putting on a show.

923 looks absolutely stunning atm through an eyepiece. Hit it at about 150X this morning with the ED80. Grabbed a few avies while I was at it. Unfortunately on 1 was really worth processing.

ED80 plus ToUcam. 12.5mm eyepiece projection. Best 150/1500. Wouldn't take much sharpening in Registax. Cropped and framed in PS CS.

Hi Paul

A very nice image with heaps of detail. I've just returned from processing my lot for the morning. Gee it was tough out there today; the seeing was quite poor and I found it difficult to get a clear focus at times.

Cheers

Dennis

Thanks guys. Yeah I know what you mean Dennis. I took 12 avies up to 1500 frames and this was the only one worth processing. I guess it will take a couple of days to settle down after this wind.
