Solar Sunday

[Montana]

What a fabulous day Sunday was, I don't think I have seen that much blue sky for a year, no clouds, it was quite unbelievable. After doing the housework I was able to get set up by 11am and had great fun for an hour in white light whilst the seeing was lovely. I then had to do the dinner, then it was back out to enjoy Hydrogen alpha and Calcium K but the seeing had gone not so nice by then. First I'll show the Halpha and Calcium K (I'm still working on the white light).

I think these views have been pretty much covered by everyone else but here is my version anyway, thanks for looking, I'll get round to the white light hopefully tonight.

I've really been missing those CaK shots , good to see you catch some clear for a change . .

I like the presentation of the Ha one on a blue background. Can't believe you do the chores before imaging - far too disciplined!

Nice shots all round, love the double stacks. I would have cancelled dinner or postponed until dusk, muttering something about the kitchen been closed.
