August 19, 2021 Proms Quantum 6

Post by Astrophil »

Hi All,

It was a nice clear morning to reacquaint myself with some solar imaging. Happily imaging away until the clouds rolled in. Then I realized that the camera I used had previously been set for a small ROI and only about one quarter of the chip was recording. The images were good enough to post but what a missed opportunity.
Serves me right for taking so much time away from imaging the Sun.

I added a focal reducer for this one. Looks like a roadrunner to me.

They are still nice captures. I notice especially the one of the NE filament. The filamentary detail can be seen within it against the backdrop of the chromosphere.
