Today Sun 31/03/2020 White light, CaK, H-alpha

Post by salvo lauricella »

Hi all, today was a beautiful sunny morning. I used 2 different scopes and 3 different filters.
For white light: TS 80ED F/7, Lunt 1,25" Herschel wedge, Baader UV/IR Cut, Baader Solar Continuum.
For CaK: TS 80ED F/7, Lunt CaK module B1200.
For H-Alpha: Lunt LS60THaPT/B1200 in single and double stack mode (have a look at the comparison).
Camera: PGR Gasshopper3 GS3-U3-28S4M.
Thanks for looking.

Looks like you had a nice session, lots of great images.

Good to see that SS/DS side by side. Quite a difference when there's actually something to see on the surface (AR and a few of the small filaments).
