SolarChat!

Happy Sunday to all.
We had blue skies horizon to horizon today & although the Sun has been quiet I had a quick look.
When the conditions behaved the seeing was quite good with small ARs, Prominences & a reasonable Filament in the South to view. I took a few pics as presented below. It was great to be out & about under the Sun again.
PS. I am heading to Tasmania for the Partial Solar Eclipse on 13 July 2018 - from memory only 3% of the Sun will be eclipsed by the Moon & it will probably be one of the least viewed Eclipses of the recent ones. I had a look at the weather conditions & I read the following - over the past 20 years (on the day) there has been 50-100% cloud coverage - good news is I am also travelling to catch up with family.
Have a great week!

Excellent shots Matt! You will have fun in Tasmania

Thanks Matt they look good.

Lovely disks Matt, thank you for the nice views.

Stunning full discs as usual Matt, I always love your processing and nice to see that polar crown filament still there I am just waiting for the hi res WL images that your son is also asking for

Have fun in Tasmania, you never know if it has never been sunny on that date before then it is about time it was by chance
