Hello friends!

Last Saturday I´ve tried to do my first time lapse (animation) of the Sun. Unfortunately it was little cloudy and the seeing was not so good. But it was an incredible experience. I hope you like it!

.

Setup:
APM LZOS 152 + Solar Spectrum 0,3A RG + Baader TZ3 + Basler acA 1920-155

Softwares:
AS!2 (staking) + PixInsight (wallets + color) + Affinity Photo (frames alignment + details) + PhotoScape (GIFF)

I see material going left and right, like a whirlwind.

Thank you Ronnie. The actions of the prom are quite interesting and well-captured - thanks.

I've still got the Friday animation of the flare to complete...

Well done!
I suggest shorter time intervals next time (30 s - 1 minute) for smoother motion.

Very interesting motion there, Ronnie, not only in the prom, but also in the spicule field. Nicely captured.

Just for information, I capture 10s bursts every 30s for my animations, which seems to work.

I agree. That spicule field activity is captured splendidly!

Very good. Like the movement of the spicules on the surface. They look like grass tufts

Many thanks for your kind words friends!

Special thanks to Stu and GreatAttractor for your tips! I´ll use your suggestions in my next session! :-).
