AR 11195 & AR 11196 - Apr 26

[brianb]

A mosaic of the activity near the meridian in the southern hemisphere. AR 11196 has lots of bright plage but only a few tiny spots; AR 11195 has many spots but not much plage.

2011 Apr 26, 1100 UT. William Optics FLT 110, 2x Powermate, Solarscope SF-100 Ha filter set, DMK41 (2 frame mosaic). Transparency good, seeing rather poor with condiserable boiling.

I've gone for a slightly softer / more subtle processing style; please tell me if you like / hate it (constructive criticism always welcome!)

I also prefer the softer version. Make the images more natural you can almost feel surface moving and the energy radiating out.

Excellent work Brian!

Brian,

I would be interested in hearing more about your new image processing style.
