Ha Full Disk 30th July

Ha FD DS60 f10 zwo183mm A brief gap in what seemed liked endless clouds this afternoon gave me just enough time to grab a full disk in Ha. Taken with the Coronado DS60 at f10 and the zwo183mm camera.

Saturdays Ha Sunshine 12th July

Finally a decent seeing, decent transparency and some time to do some solar. Taken with the trusty Coronado DS60. I'm really pleased with this scope as offeres a sweetspot in terms of resoultion and the seeing that I get all to often.

Thursday Sunshine 26th June

Another Thursday, another quick solar session after work. The seeing was slighty better than previous sessions, but 60mm Ha and 40mm CaK seems my afternoon ceiling in terms of seeing. Still nice to see the sun and all the filaments that were visible. Ha FD DS60 f11 zwo183mm CaK FD 40mm f15 zwo183mm

Thursdays Disks 19th June

The hot weather carries on, today was hotter but both transparency and seeing were better than the day before. Note, seeing was just better than yesterday, not good! Ha FD DS60 f11 zwo183mm CaK FD 40mm f15 zwo183mm 430nm 50mm f12 zwo183mm

Wednesday Trio of Disks 18th June

The clear skies continue, the temperatures hotter and the seeing only allows the smaller apertures, hence, full disks. Ha FD DS60 f11 zwo183mm CaK FD 40mm f15 zwo183mm 430bn 50mm f12 zwo183mm

Mondays Sun - 16th June

Good weather returns to the UK, and with the high temperatures and urban environment poorer seeing, but, atleast I can see the sun! Ha FD DS60 f11 zwo183mm CaK FD 40mm f15 zwo183mm 430nm 50mm f12 zwo183mm

Trio of Disks 1st June

I don't seem to be getting anywhere as much time as I would like for solar imaging at the moment, still the first of June offered some clear skies very first thing, even with poor seeing to get a trio of disks. Ha FD DS60 f11 zwo183mm CaK DS 40mm f15 zwo183mm 430nm 50mm f12 zwo183mm
