Re: Sol 12-4-2016 Good results there Steve!

Good results there Steve!

Excellent closeup Pepe!

That's excellent! I'm jealous of all the excellent seeing you guys get.

These are excellent results! Well done! Quite a comparison to what you were getting with the DSLR and the old quark!

Woohoo! Same time exactly! Must have been the West Midlands Sunday morning gap

Hopefully I should finish processing from this weekend later tonight and will get them up...

Super detail there Bill!

Lovely shots Michael, I must try my C8 for some white light at some point.

A brilliant set of images there Robert! I'm awaiting the arrival of a tilter for my CH3.

A lovely set of images all round Derek! I like them

Looks good! What timescale was this over Apollo?

Good record! It's a big dinosaur of a spot!

What time did you do the flare animation? I have one in CaK that looks mighty similar...

I'd recommend the Point Grey Grasshopper 5Mp for what you want. Not familiar with the SBIG, but is it a single shot camera? The PGR is a video camera and you would be looking to stack images from it.

A nice pair of disks there Michael!

Looks good John!

Excellent shots there!

Re: Sun, April 10, 2016 Nice results there!

Nice results there!

Re: AR2529 / 04.11.2016 Excellent images Jozef!

Excellent images Jozef!

Thanks everyone! Alexandra, with the CH3 and an astro engineering 1.4x nosepiece it makes a perfect full disk that just fits the frame (as in the fd images above) which are also taken at native 400mm fl as with the PSTs, with the tilt needed to throw the interference fringes in both Ha and CaK that ...

A great addition Phillipe!

Be patient! The PHP issue is being dealt with!

No worries!

Stephen is aware, he's working on it

Excellent! Keep em' coming!

Looks lovely mate! Where abouts are you?

Superb images JP!

Welcome to the forum!

Absolutely stunning!

Interesting! Yours gives a lovely flat and even field, mine has banding, which upon experiment this weekend can be removed by tilt...

I'm onto it

I may have one John, will look for you.

Great addition Stu!

You have loads of fun with your outreach James, excellent stuff! Such blue skies all the time too!

No issue because of I've a motorized moonlite focuser ;-)

Nice!

Lovely set of images Pedro! I must confess I had a look at him through the solar glasses this morning too, a huge spot!

Nice sketch and good to see your setup too!

What a start to the season Alessandro!

Do you have any issues with mirror flop when focusing with the C14?

Excellent results considering Mike! Conditions deteriorated rapidly from about 9am. I persevered for hours but i'm not convinced I have much to show for it

What a great set! Good show you! That filament lift off is a cracker.

The jet streams influences were moving up from the south quite early in the morning today, I had a few shots first thing in CaK that kinda worked, then you could just tell it had hit!

Excellent shots Steve! Do you apply any tilt here, or blackfly right up the end of the diagonal?

These are stunning Phillipe! Congratulations!

Makes the pictures I took today seem rather 'soft' in comparison!

A great close up Bill and Arriel!

Nice shots Apollo! Glad your mod is working well

Re: The Sun 10 April 2016 white light Good capture Roger!

Good capture Roger!

Mark - Those are swifts. It is common to see them flying happily as a group feeding on insects just before it starts raining. For some reason, insects fly high up in swarms before it rains. Thanks Alfred! Maybe another couple of 3 weeks till we see them in the UK, though, I must admit, I have been ...

Thanks all! have had another interesting day with this camera, starting to understand and appreciate the complexities of different sized pixels on chips.

Today I have also declared a war, on interference fringes.

Re: Full Disc White Light 10/04/16 + Data Great shot of the cyclops!

Great shot of the cyclops!

Re: Full Disc White Light 09/04/16 + Data Good capture Richard!

Good capture Richard!

That animation looks good! Easy to see the penumbral waves

sometimes a bit of haze isn't a bad thing!

Saturday morning very first thing offered a glimmer of some blue skies briefly, and like everyone else was keen to get a look at AR12529. Unfortunately the jet stream was screaming overhead, and as soon as the sun had cleared the local rooftops instability had set in and clouds were scudding by. As ...
