Saturday started with clear skies and decent transparency, with the large active region(s?) of late heading over the limb it was a good opportunity to check out for CaK proms, and there were plenty!

Ha Full Disk 1st October
The sun gets ever lower in the sky but clear skies meant I managed a quick full disk in the afternoon. I was keen to try out my new Beloptik ITF filter on the BF15, and are pleased to find it has higher transmission, with exposure time of 5ms compared to the usual 6ms. The disk was taken with the double stacked 50mm setup, 2x cemax barlow and the ZWO183mm camera.

Sunday Sunshine 26th June CaK Selection
Conditions weren't supporting the largest apertures, but I was able to get up to 80mm for the closer views. Very pleased with how the zwo183mm performs at CaK wavelenhgths, both full disk and for closeups using ROI.
Sunday Sunshine 26th June Ha Selection
Conditions were quite nice on Sunday, with at times, some decent seeing. I was able to capture the full disk with the DS50 and also get a closeup with the double stacked Quark on the APM 100/800 refractor.
