The Sun - 29th Aug 2015

[David Smith]

Didn't expect to get anything today as forecast was for overcast all day. However, clouds broke quite well just after 9:30 and I was waiting for the gap

White Light FD's via 1100D / Evostar setup. A bit soft today as not a lot to focus on.

Slice - 4 pane mosaic as the active area was wider than I could snag with just 2 panes.

Proms - 2 pane mosaic stitched manually as MS ICE was having none of it

Cor, you don't mess about when a gap arrives. I hope I have a soggy shot of the AR waving bye bye.

[Pete Presland]

Excellent set of images you have covered all the bases again.

Interesting stuff going on in Ha and CaK even if white light is calming down for the moment.

Outstanding collection of different types of images - I especially noticed how more "natural" your ha images looked compared to my efforts - and that's with a b1200 - does this explain the improvement or is there another element I'm missing?

Really good stuff.

Thanks all for your comments.

@David - The H alpha is shot with a bog standard PST, the "B1200 " refers to the calcium module.
