Sun in Whitelight 15th July 2022. Best seeing for months ...
Staggered at how good it was this morning , a dream start to any day ... I hope that other folk got to catch the same thing ...
It's so rare to see crisp detail across so many regions at the same time in a single frame , but I caught 94 just such frames from just 360 shot before it deteriorated back to it's usual wibbly-wobbly mess ...
The stack straight from AS!3 was better than most of my 'finished' images ....
Have used Astrobin large thumbnails here , if they are against the rules I can swap them out for mediums ... ?

Wonderful white light image Steve! Lovely details on the sunspots. The weather in Finland seems like the UK now, I miss the good days in spring and June

Congratulations Steve.
Good seeing is like London buses.
You wait for months... and then two come along at the same time.

I hope for good seeing again but I'll be happy just to get clear enough skies to observe or image come morning.
