Belated CaK and WL from 22nd April
Hi all, just managed to process some of the images from the 22nd April. 100mm Achromat plus Lunt b1800 CaK and 80mm ED pluse hershal wedge and baader K-Line filter for white light.

Re: Belated CaK and WL from 22nd April
I love the inverted CaK image! Nice! Though the amount of detail is significant in your WL images it looks like seeing is obscuring the very finest of detail. That's normal here for me.

Re: Belated CaK and WL from 22nd April
Thanks James, I'll have to start saving files in jpeg in future. Seeing wasn't the best but not as bad as the 23rd. I was to late in the morning and temperatures had risen significantly. My best time is between 8am and 10am.DeepSolar64 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 12:49 am I love the inverted CaK image! Nice!

Re: Belated CaK and WL from 22nd April
Good shots! JPEGs would be good. Looks like you were fighting the seeing. Run that 100 achro at 60mm with your CaK and will give you considerably better results...

Re: Belated CaK and WL from 22nd April
Thanks Mark, yes I was fighting seeing for the past several days even though it's lovely and sunny. I had the 100mm stopped down to 80mm but think I could have still reduced further as you say. Typical, lovely clear blue skies and horrible seeing.marktownley wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 11:01 am Good shots! JPEGs would be good. Looks like you were fighting the seeing.

Re: Belated CaK and WL from 22nd April
If you're just doing full disks, at that scale, reducing down to 60mm (good seeing!) all the way down to 40mm (less than ideal seeing!) work well with CaK. I even have a 30mm mask for diabolical seeing. Don't forget in CaK you have 1.6x the resolution of Ha because of the shorter wavelength, so 30mm CaK is the same as 50mm Ha... 80mm CaK is equivalent to 130mm in Ha...Stardust5858 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 11:09 amThanks Mark, yes I was fighting seeing for the past several days even though it's lovely and sunny.

Re: Belated CaK and WL from 22nd April
Excellent/Fab set of images Nigella.
The negative-CaK image does add to the result of the positive-version so well.
Thanks for sharing
