Hi All,

If you are looking to add things to your astronomical toy-box that have a tremendous wow-factor, you might consider an H-a solar filter.

I'm beginning to think these puppies are better 'n sliced bread! My fifth time out with the Coronado was a bit more rewarding than the previous attempts, and I'm finally starting to unravel some of the nuances in my setup. Here's one of today's shots.

Time for dinner now (I'm running late today!)

Ciao (chow!)

Paul

The first remark out of my mouth would get me in trouble with Herb if I posted it here. But it started with "Holy...!"

That is gorgeous, Paul. Be sure to post the link on s.a.a. so the person who was so snooty about your last effort will see the link.

Incredible. Thanks for sharing.

WHOA!!!!
Now, where did I put those damn marshmallows?

Great Pic!!!
Hmmm, I wonder if my wife would get upset if I just spent $1000 for a filter?
:-P

Keep up the great work!
