Ha Full Disk - 23rd September

The sun was very quiet today, with only a few very small filaments on the disk, however a collection of nice small proms made up for this.  Taken with the DS50 and PGR Chameleon 3 camera.

Sunday Prominences - 23rd September



The sun was quiet today but was putting on a nice show of prominences.  I used my new Coronado CEMAX 2x barlow with the DS50 to get some close up views.  The seeing wasn't too bad and got some nice images.  Camera used was the PGR Chameleon 3.

Closeup in Calcium - 23rd September

The seeing was better than I expected today and I managed to get a close up of the faculae that was visible mid disk.  Taken with the 100mm Tal refractor at 2000mm focal length with the home brew CaK filter and the PGR Chameleon 3 camera.  

CaK Full Disk - 23rd September

The sun was mighty quiet today in CaK light, with a few small patches of brighter faculae really the only features on the disk.  Taken with the 40mm scope at f14 with the home brew CaK filter and the PGR Chameleon 3 camera.
