The Sun 26 January 2013 white light

My first "Sun" since the 13th - and very nice to see it again (only the fourth set of pictures for January). The seeing was awful with the image boiling all over the place!

86/128 frames stacked in Registax5 with 24 flats. SW Evostar 120mm Achromat stopped to 100mm. Baader film. Canon 1100D 1/1250 sec ISO 100. Motorised EQ5 mount.

Nice capture Roger, it is good to get back in to the swing of it. Gloriously sunny here this morning so set up and had a go in Ha, but like you it was very unstable and the sun appeared to be behind a thin layer of mist the whole time, which limited the detail. I am still processing the results.

Great work Roger! Doesn't the solar cycle start at the minimum?

Oops! So it does - Its just that high latitude spot threw me!! Thanks Alexandra.

Good one considering the gruesome conditions Roger ,

Here's hoping for better tomorrow . . .
