Images of the Sun, our local star, at a range of wavelengths with specialist solar telescopes. Imaging tutorials, solar bits and pieces for sale, talks and outreach with the Charlie Bates Solar Astronomy Project CBSAP.
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.
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.
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!
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.
