Early morning session Brisbane Australia 24/10/2019

Post by Martin_S »

Today was a perfect day in Brisbane. So I set up at 8 am for some early morning imaging before the skies got any turbulence.

These are a few pictures taken with my Lunt 60mm SS. The sun was quite flat today but the prominence's around the limb made up for it.

Thanks Franco, that's my quick setup when there is more to see I have a dual set up on my HEQ5 pro.
