Fairly poor conditions here today (cloudy haze all throughout the sky), which of course doesn't exactly promise great seeing. But there was actually something worth seeing today, so gave it a shot anyway.
Sharpness/detail is lacking, but that prom was still quite the sight to observe on the screen regardless. And a little bonus CaK disk, because I just like CaK
Setup:
HA: 80ED, Quark Chromosphere, IMX174.
CaK: 80ED (stopped down to 60mm), IMX178 (2-panel mosaic).
Thanks for looking.

Nice! The CaK disk works well with the 178, be interesting to see what it's like on a haze free day.
