Hello everyone,
after a long time I'm back to solar imaging grin grin grin

The sun has given us a sign of life and the hunting season is on!

Here is an h-alfa shot taken with the 180 TEC and Solar Spectrum .3A. The ERF was totally open at 180mm ad the focal length is 5000mm. Camera: Lumenera Infinity 2-1M approx 60 of 500 frames in registax and then PS.

Ciao
Luca

This is always NOAA988 but in white light. Same focal length as the h-alpha. TEC180mm with Baader Herschel prism with Baader continuum filter. Only 23 frames were salvaged and used for this image out of the 500 captured sad

Hi Luca:

That sure is a magnificent image, congratulations! You can almost feel the (nuclear, magnetic and gravitational) solar forces at work.

Have a good day, Dan grin

Luca, incredible solar images! Your equipment really brings out the surface details making the shots seem 3-dimensional. Thanks for posting
