250mm RCT Ha AR2712

Post by Carbon60 »

Holiday Monday, blue sky with pretty reasonable seeing (this morning) and a large active region to image..... almost unheard of! :o

It was a good opportunity to again try with the 250mm RCT/Lunt 35 Ha scope.
Basler acA1920-155um camera with 2.5x Powermate.
AS!3, Imppg, PixInsight.

Very nice images Stu. Strange but for some unclear reason the colored one looks sharper.
