First Solar Image

[Skywatcher 200]

Hi all, this is my first attempt at an image of the Sun,

Equip : Skywatcher 200PDS, 2x Barlow, Orion Solar Filter and a Nikon D3200 camera,

Any comments/suggestions as to how i could improve it would be welcome

Thanx Andy

Good first attempt.  Just to be picky - your focus seems a bit "soft" and you could probably drop the exposure and get more detail to "pop out".  Next time you could also try taking quite a few frames and stacking them in Registax5 (not 6!!)- I thing you will like the difference it makes.

congrats on your first image, i would echo the advice from Roger

Thanx for the input, would it be better to capture a .mov/.avi file for use in Registax5 or a series of still images ?
