First solar images
My first solar images from today's sun, 20th May. Am ready for the transit of Venus.
Focusing is a little hard with the lappy outside in the light.

Nice images Paula. Everyone is getting all toey now aren't they. Not long to go.

You seem to have a dust bunny on your sensor. You might want to blow some air on it to shift it.
