Today's Solar Features in High Res | April 29th 2019

Post by MalVeauX »

Heya,

Seeing was ok this morning, but not superb. Had some clear skies so I figured even though there's no major features going on, there is always something to find with enough resolution. Went after some small prominences, spicules, convection cells and other tiny features in the photosphere & chromoshpere.

B&W:

SkyBender + Baader Blue CCD-IR Block + Chroma 393.37 0.1nm (CaK)

Great set Marty. Mostly clouds here at the moment but I did get a few minutes at the eyepiece of the Evostar with the Lacerta wedge earlier.

Marty, I really like the texture you brought out in the first image. Great detail and processing. Are the HR surface images (Ha and WL) the same region? They turned out well.
