Sunspots On The limb


Hawksmoor

Sometime ago, I purchased a QHY5v colour planetary camera from Modern Astronomy (very efficient and helpful). Due to the terrible weather, only got to try it this week. Works a treat! As I had made myself a white light filter for my refractor, I thought I would try it out on some sunspots. Well bearing in mind how energetic the sun has been, Aurora seen in Norfolk, I was surprised to see no spots on the disc other than a few near the edge. Something of a focussing challenge! Anyway the camera works and there were no clouds in the sky!!
