Solar games 25.05.

Post by pupak »

Today I tested the possibility of using a collimated DSII etalon composed of LS80 and Quark. I used lenses with f=225mm with a diameter of 40mm. The whole set behaves very well and I finally spawned a full disc, even if it's not worth much. It needs a different glass.

I do not look at the sky with the eyes of an astronomer, but of a person looking for the beauty of nature.

Very nice, Petr. Not sure about the FDs, but the close views are amazing.

Wonderful results! I really like the 3D effect of the prom shots.

As Stu aptly noted, the FDs are rather embarrassing, but it was the first attempt with a collimated DSII module, so hopefully it will be better today.
Otherwise, thank you all for the encouraging comments. :bow2
