My Ha Solar 1st June 2013

[allcart]

Just a few pics from Saturday 1st June. Quite a decent day for solar imaging although the sun wasn't ablaze with features and the proms were generally small. The seeing was reasonable but it was a bit breezy which makes the big girl wobble a bit. Anyway it gave me a good oportunity to observe, image and test out various scope configurations. On the imaging side I started off with full disc pics with the LS60T.

Here is a ful disc using a reducer to get the whole disc in one shot.

And here is a full disc made with a 2 panel mosaic using the LS60T, no reducer.

Now with the next couple of pics I messed around with powemates and barlows and used my Lunt/C6-R solar modded scope to see what the big girl can do. I also tried to add a pst into the mix to see if I could get a double stack configuration, but for imaging it was not successful. Needs more testing on that one. I can't remember eactly what I used for thes pics coz I didn't make notes but judging by the scale, I would say the last one would have to be the Lunt monster.

All very good Allan, especially the two pane mosaic, you can't see the joins. I like the Luntmonster pic at the end as well. No sun here yesterday until late evening.

Thanks Robin. Now I need to practice getting the proms onto the pics as well. Maybe todays proms will be better.
