Sun in Ha - 8 and 9 September - full disc and close-ups

Post by rbotero »

Hello All!

Amazing shots posted by everyone over the last few weeks I have been away. No time to congratulate you all on your efforts but thank you for keeping those of us who do not see the Sun as often as we'd like informed of what's happening! :thumbsup:

My humble attempts over the (partially sunny) weekend from Kent in south east England. Close-ups taken using eyepiece projection on a Baader 8-24mm Mark IV zoom under (high) cloudy skies. Full disc composed of 20 frames taken using a 2.25x Baader at prime focus taken early yesterday morning. All with the PGR Chameleon + FireCapture + IKI 77mm semi-apo + DS SM60 Coronado filters.

Cheers B)

Roberto
