Hi, everyone. I haven't made a post in a while, but have been keeping up with your excellent images. I made time to image the solar disturbance 798 with three different filters. The first in the sequence is white light made with a Takahashi FS152/Baader filter, the second was made with a Coronado SolarMax 70 Cal-K, and the third with a Coronado SolarMax 90 H/Alpha (doublestacked). Since all were artificially colored I kept them the same. I am curious about your thoughts on this since most Cal-K images are purple/blue.

I almost forgot. The images were made with an SBIG STL11000CM one shot color camera.

Hi Russell -

Very cool to see the comparison in different wavelengths of light. I wonder if it could be done with some sort of transition fade - perhaps it would make too a larger file?

Thanks for posting the image,
Alan
