Narrowband

Sun 020914 with Towa 339 and Lunt

Finally put the old 1970s 80mm Towa 339 F15 achro back together after about 8 months of "Ive got to sort that scope out again" promises.

So I thought I would give it a go on solar today with the Lunt.

I did three pics of the detail not intending to do a mosaic so didn't do any flats. But after processing just I thought what the heck a mosaic will show the positional relationship between the groups. So here it is joins and all. 

I must admit to neglecting the old Towa lately, I must use it more often, its a cracker. Ive left it on the obs mount now so next clear night I shall give it a go with some doubles.

Ta folks. I was fascinated by the oval group. I was concentrating on it visually and despite conditions preventing decent mags it showed lots of detail and lots of smaller spots in there. I do like the wedge, far better contrast than the solar film.
