I see you got two pores as Rainer did. Close together. Undoubtedly seeing was not good enough at my location to resolve them apart. Excellent work!!

Thank you all for your comments, Alexandra , the K line Image isn't a true Cak Image , It's just been enhanced in photoshop.

These are impressive Martin. Did you ever get that replacement solar film sorted out you were after a while back?

I did Mark, but I haven't mounted it yet, I've been busy working on my Darkside rig for EAA .I bought an old non working Nexstar dirt cheap for parts. I rebuilt it and made myself a great rig for the darkside so now I can leave my solar telescopes set up and use the nextstar at night.
