Superb details visible there, so many small craters.

Very nicely captured.

I remember having similar issues when I 1st purchased my Lunt 50mm. Hopefully this thread might be of some help as well. Congratulations on our 1st image.

Very nice Reggie

Lovely set of images.

Very nicely captured, looks like a small filament there.

Thank you for the kind comments everyone. 👍

Good to see a Ca-K disc again David, hopefully next year might see an increase in activity.

Nice collection of proms

The tricky conditions and my modest processing skills made this animation pretty difficult for me. Plenty of clouds, but quite a few decent gaps as well for the much anticipated transit. Captured with my Lunt 50 and trusty DMK21 au 618 camera. Around 2 hours movement from start to finish, before the Sun dipped behind the houses.

Thank you very much Reggie. I find it really tricky to know whether i have got the most of an image or not. I looked at this thread on the house computer a couple of days ago and thought the last image looks a bit "over-saturated" in the centre of the disc. looking today on my laptop, it looks ok again. I guess mostly down to screen calibration of the individual devices.

What a find,beautiful image with those moons on display and the GRS taking centre stage on the disc!

Lovely Venus image NV, the gibbous phase is clearly visible and its nice and sharply focused. I am completely unfamiliar with your camera, so I don't know whether you are operating at the optimum imaging scale or not with your scope. what's the pixel size for the camera? I would guess probably not and a Barlow would bring you nearer. It will probably not however show on more detail with Venus, you need a UV filter (not cheap) to show the faint clouds. Its worth a try though because I am sure I have read in the past about people having some success with just a I/R filter. I did try a few years back a Violet filter and a I/R filter to capture the clouds, but never managed any. It wasn't until I purchased my U/V filter I started to capture them.

Very nice close up Avani.

Very nicely captured.

It certainly didn't last long according the spaceweather site, its already gone. You did well to capture it.

Good to see you posting again Reggie 🙂
