The Sun - 22nd Jun 2014

[David Smith]

Good things come to he who waits. Late shift didn't finish until 3 am last night so got up late to find lots of cloud   Setup anyway as there were some gaps / thin spots. First run of subs was awful so went back for a second and then third run. Eventually got something workable. Not helped but the few very small spots making focusing tricky. Installed EOS Utils on the laptop to try focusing suing the laptop but capture is way too slow direct to laptop. I'm used to rattling off 130 frames in 90 seconds

Grabbed some H alpha too but will have to process later.

Nice full disk image, focus looks good to me (better than I can do with my 500D & 8" SCT)

Nice shot, David, well worth the effort

We got lucky our way this morning. I could see a big blanket of cloud to the North, but we escaped its wrath.

Not as much in WL as Ha, but still a good one. Hope the 3am shift was stargazing?

A superb shot :)
