June 14th Solar Session

Post by MapleRidge »

Good day everyone...

Work has slowed my imaging and processing time to a crawl lately, but I did get a chance to image on Tuesday over my lunch hour. I finished processing these last night and finally posting them before they become old news ;)

The first images are full disks...Ha with the LS80T/LS75FHa/B1800Ha, WL with the Lunt Solar Wedge/Baader Continuum, and CaK imaged with the Lunt B18700CaK/Baader K-Line filter sets. The Wl and CaK were imaged through the Orion EON 130 OTA. The ASI1600MM camera was used for all three, but a 1.6x barlow was added for the Ha image:

The seeing was below average and I had limited time to convert the Orion OTA over to modded Ha configuration, so I used the LS80T scope with a 3x focal extender with the ASI290MM to capture the images used in the disk mosaics and prom images below:

This covers the session form the 14th. The weekend weather forecast has given me clear skies on Saturday and the same is due for Sunday, so I am making the best of it ;)
