SolarChat!

Today I was aware of the huge prom, but clouds were playing a game with me. Just 1 hour before the sun was getting behind my house I had luck and could still make some images. It was already in the final phases when the prom was getting detached. So I was lucky it was over 150.000 km high so I was really impressed.

First image was take with my tmb92 and a 75mm Lunt etalon. The disk was made with my lunt 60.

And some shots from yesterday.

Glad you caught that with the prom floating above the surface, great shot!

Nice scale! It let's everyone clearly see how big that prom really was. Very nice images!!

Hello Andre,

Very nice images! I like the colour background in your SPOD with the full disc and prom lifting. What colour is that ? I think the hex code for the colour is: 333c45

Is this correct ? Did you put a gradient on it ? radial or otherwise.

Many thanks.

I don't know the exact color to be honest. Just copied it from an earlier picture that I made. I always use content aware filling for the background layer, so there comes a small gradient from. I like that more than a single color
