Very nice.
May have to dust off one of my old University Optics filters and try some video imaging of the sun.

Nice! Just thinking: Sol's mag field flips each cycle, so a "Full cycle" would be 22 years. Saturn's rings "open up" for us twice per orbit = twice in 29 years. The things we wait for. Tom
