AR12427 in CaK Light - 4th October

I ended up taking dozens of images in the poor seeing in the hope that one would come out, and this one did - the definition of lucky imaging.  The shot was taken with the 100mm Tal refractor at a shade over 3000mm focal length using the homebrew CaK filter and the PGR Blackfly IMX249 GigE camera.  This is not as sharp an image as I know I can get with this setup, but for a shot taken in early october with a low sun it works pretty well!
