Howdy Solar Chatters!
"Well it's a hot one, like seven inches from the midday Sun"...temps here got to 30C plus but just inland recorded 35-38C and tomorrow and Saturday look like blitzing those numbers. So I had to limit my time on the deck or melt. I started late due to cloud and had to pack it in by 1030am ish my time. Mind you I threw everything I had at the scope to cool things down. As you can see by the pic, I started early with cork pads on the concrete tiles, a fan (a matching Ha Solar red) a mobile phone cooler on the ZWO432MM (great idea that one Martin) and windscreen insulation around the camera, the scope head and the pressure tuner.
So here I present my humble 80 minutes captured UT 2023/03/15 23:14 to 2023/03/16 00:34 with a link also to my Astrobin Gallery.
And to finish off my quick Mosaic for the day.
Thanks for looking,
Peter

Superb animation and photos.
I do not look at the sky with the eyes of an astronomer, but of a person looking for the beauty of nature.
