Excellent Simon!

[DeepSolar64]

I am utterly impressed, again...

What scope did you use on the photosphere?

James

[Simon2940]

EvoStar 150 and the Lunt Solar Wedge with a Solar Continuum Filter + UV/IR Cut filter.

I did some with the 5x and the other with a 5x & 2x combined. Doesnt always work but sometimes i get nice results.

I am utterly impressed, again...

Excellent set of images. Which camera did you use for photosphere? These images show what is possible with 6” scope

[DeepSolar64]

The EvoStar 150 works very well and resolves the granules without effort!

[MapleRidge]

Remarkable images Simon, nicely done!

Excellent Simon !
If you have a deep sky OIII filter (Astronomik, Baader, etc.), you can also try with it. You will get some more resolution.

[Montana]

Absolutely wonderful these WL images have stolen my heart

Alexandra

[MoonPrince]

Amazing details and beautiful color, those are the best solar images I have ever seen!!

Hello Christian,
I just started reading your book - Solar astronomy.
Do you mean use OIII filter instead of a continuum filter ? That would be a better filter than the Continuum filter ?

Many thanks.

Wait, what??? Seriously? Do I use it instead of the Continuum filter?
