PB PST Sol 2nd May

Pretty close to my best I reckon. Seeing was damned nice but wasn't constant so I waited a bit between runs to get my 6 sets for the mosaic.

Settings: 60 gamma 75% gain 60 FPS 122nd exp. 1100 captured per run 150 stacked for each.

PST/DMK21/6 pane mosaic

They're nice John, very, and you almost forget that these are with a humble PST, testament to the ability etc.
I reckon they are a tad over-cooked, but that's just me.
Lovely.
Gary

I've just realized something, just before posting I added some unsharpmasking to a few areas like active regions/sunspots etc & that's why it looks a tad cooked.

Might redo it.

Hi Asimov,
it's a fantastic work... I understand that, to realize a so fine image it's no easy, a lot of patience and a great ability are necessary.

Thank you Nunzio. Well I have been doing planet imaging for a few years, so I think that helped me enormously in this respect of Solar imaging.

Thanks Amanda & great to see you here!!
