2020-04-26 - A whole lot of HA

[JochenM]

Forecast predicts today being the last sunny day for a while to come; so of course I made use of that. Conditions weren't great (already a bit hazy), but still good enough to get some decent shots with the smaller apertures.

A few nice proms showed up, and the bright spot close to the equator is still in full force. So those were the targets obviously.

Setup:

HA (Full Disk): Lunt LS50 b600 (single), IMX 178.
HA (everything else): 80ED, Quark Chromosphere, 35nm H-Alpha Filter (before the diagonal), IMX174.

Thanks for looking!

Jochen,
Great images. You've picked up the tiny pores and the spicule layer. Proof of considerable skill and resolution.

Thanks Stu/Alexandra.

And while it's a shame this weather has ended; it's still only April. Plenty of time left for a (hopefully) sunny end of spring and summer *fingers crossed*
