Your session sounds very similar to mine, Alexandra. Lovely images. The Sun has been such a pleasure to view and image these past few days.

Great to see you guys together. Looks like a great show, even if numbers were down.

Thanks for your report and photos, Franco.

Very nice, indeed, Mark. The 66mm f15 images do look better, but all look great.

Superb, Mark. Beautiful details in the close views. That’s an awesome setup.

I was in Redditch over the weekend and got to experience the lovely weekend weather close by.

Many thanks, everyone. I got lucky with the clouds rolling in moments later.

Be interesting to see what the solar spectrum CAK etalons show. Till then I keep fiddling, I can't help myself :D It certainly will be interesting. Keep pushing those boundaries of what’s possible :) Stu. Thanks Stu! Boundaries are there to be pushed. One of the things I so like with solar is that ...

Superb, Nic. Love the animation. In CaK, that isn’t something you see every day :band The ghosting could be coming from the filters, but also it could be coming from spurious light reflecting off the inner walls of the OTA and/or the Lunt module tube wall. Advanced high absorbing black paint on all ...

I’m not sure how much further tweaking you could do, but I’m sure you’ll eventually squeeze out every last drop of capability from your setup. :D Be interesting to see what the solar spectrum CAK etalons show.

That’s a shame, Mark. So often the case. Sometimes the sky can be a lovely blue from horizon to horizon and then turn nasty just when things are setup ready to roll….

Many thanks, Alexandra and Arne. Back to clouds and rain this Thursday afternoon.

Beautiful FDs, Mark. I’d be delighted with these. I’m not sure how much further tweaking you could do, but I’m sure you’ll eventually squeeze out every last drop of capability from your setup.

Idyllic, James. Sounds like a wonderful way to spend some time alone. I'd second Mark's recommendation to add a floatation device to your keys....or tie them to your belt

Stu.

Gorgeous lake view, James. Nice solar images too.

Your calcium images remain sublime and very impressive.

A second day of Sun...yay, but not without some scudding clouds making for a frustrating imaging session, especially making mosaics.

Many thanks, everyone. It was great just to get some sun-time after such a long spell of wet weather. Sunny again this morning...but the clouds look to be moving in again

Cheers

I got all set up under a blue sky, focused, tuned, refocused and lo and behold the clouds rolled in. The cloud magnet worked like a charm :roll: :roll: Checking around it looked set for a while, so I packed everything away....and took my Labrador for a walk. About an hour later the blue returned and...

Tomorrow could be the day…. The weather report looks favourable, but you never really know. It feels like ages since I last got on the scopes.

Nice results, Michael.

That scope amazes and terrifies me at the same time.
