CaK Proms 22nd July
The double limb is nearly resolved into individual spicules and takes on a feathery look in this image take with the homebrew CaK filter with the 40mm scope at 700mm focal length. In addition a large prom was also visible in almost ghostly form. This is a 'one shot' with both disk and proms being recorded simultaneously in the same exposure with the DMK31 camera. Hopefully in the next week I will be able to pick up a new scope to allow me to run at a native 60mm f10, which should do a nice job of revealing a bit more detail in the double limb in particular.
