Today we had a beautiful blue sky day....all day! Unfortunately I was at work, but thankfully I managed to capture some rays when I got home after 5:00 pm. By that time the seeing conditions were not at their best, of course, but given there was no choice in the matter I did what I could to capture something of AR2709.
150mm/Lunt35 mod with 2.5x Powermate.
Basler acA1920-155um with IMX 174 sensor.
AS3! stacking and Imppg deconvolution.
PixInsight colour addition.
Mono and colour versions.......

Much tweaking and reworking to get half decent images.
Thanks for looking.
Stu.

That's an excellent result Stu! I squeezed a bit of solar in after work too yesterday.

I'm glad you got some shots Stu, I like these close ups a lot
Sadly I always have to cook the tea when I get home so no chance to observe

Thanks for your kind comments, everyone.
Alexandra, there should be a rule that on sunny evenings hubby should cook

wow... impressive images, Stu, the red one is really wonderful.
Have you described anywhere your modified scope ? I am tempted to implant my Lunt50 on my 150 mm refractor too...

Hi,
This is the mod, although I now use a double stacked Lunt35 and the bi-concave collimating lens has been replaced with a Plano-concave lens. I use a Coronado BF15 blocking filter.
