Sun on the first of May

Well here's today's effort at some Solage. I don't think its my best, I left it too late and struggled with clouds and seeing.

I don't know Al, it may be soft but its a superb shot. Excellent processing mate.


BTW it looks extra wicked through a red gel screen under clear cold skies.

Hi Al

That is great - you did get quite a bit of prom action! Thanks for the full view!

That’s a great image Al. I assume it is a montage of several panes, as I am not familiar with how these specialised solar ‘scopes operate?

Cheers

2 images, Dennis. One top one bottom. The DMK 41AU02.AS just fits the sun in across the major axis of the ccd with the ED80.

Nice result there Al, particularly like the detail around the limb.

Thanks Trevor. I processed this one a little brighter around the limb at the expense of contrast on the disc, so that probably makes the proms a bit easier to see.
