Heya,
I wasn't planning on getting up this morning, was up late doing DSO, but figured I'd take a shot at it and to my surprise the seeing was rather excellent. I already had my C8 on the mount, so straight into fine imaging scale I went at 0.29"/pixel in HA & 0.20"/pixel in Gband and managed to get some data. The HA was steady enough to do a 4 panel mosaic. Included some course scale in HA, Gband and CaK to show those features, including faculae lines, grannulation, mottling, filaments, prominences and plages.
