Hi friends -

Here is more of the sun from Sunday. The sub frames in this mosaic were processed in Astro IIDC on my Mac using automated frame selection and stacking - assembly of the mosaic in Adobe Photoshop CS2.

Imaged with my 5" refractor with 90mm filter at f11 - DMK 21BF04 B&W webcam.

The sun was 25 degrees above the horizon at the time.

best,
Alan

Alan,

Very nice! I like the way features look when the sun is done in B&W.

Congratulations on getting your image at Spaceweather too!!

Fantastic detail Alan. I am amazed, particularly given the altitude of 25 degrees!
Beautiful job!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on my solar images.
