16.8.22: Sunspot AR3081 and WL Granulation @393nm

Post by Dennis »

Hello,
today was better seeing so i took a quick pre work imaging session on the balcony. The group of AR3081 wasnt the best target for this, but i think it worked ok.
Now a week of clouds ahead :(

Details:
TV Barlow 2x and 3x stacked together, Antlia 393 nm Filter, Apollo Max, C9 Triband sct.
Stacked best 10 of ~1000 images (109fps, 16 bit).

Thanks for looking.
Dennis

The C9.25 does great with the Antlia K-line filter. I can see the intergranular bright points!

These are astonishing! 👏
At first glance the sunspot top right on the first image reminded me of Animal the drummer from The Muppet Show!
