Hi, Alessandro.

Your spicule layer images are so sharp I almost cut myself. Beautifully done!

Great images,Alessandro,with your setup. Image #7 (504.9 kib) looks like what I see visually with my Lunt Engineering 102mm ED f/7 refractor, with Quark Chromosphere,and 32mm Televue Plossl.
I really like the spicules,especially with your images,and what I see visually with mine.Keep posting these awesome images,especially the limb/spicule/prominence ones!
Best,
Bob

Hi Ale,

Really excellent set of images! This 180mm telescope is really good, significantly better than your former 150mm refractor.

And we all are looking for your results with a new big refractor.
