The Sun - 16th November 2015

[David Smith]

Very fortunate to be in the right place at the right time this morning! Little bit of a twist in the presentation today, let me know if it's a good or bad thing All this cloud has given me time to read up on a number of processing techniques I was either not aware of or did not understand. Not all of which can be applied to my white light images but will come in handy for others in the future. Gradients, colour maps and layer masks so far, although I am still a little puzzled on the last one. Back to Ken Crawford's excellent tutorials tonight I think.

Nice disk despite being very quiet indeed. My H-alpha scope isn't showing anything either, but that is due to clouds

[Pete Presland]

Very nice sharp discs and excellent presentation.

[Montana]

Very very nice images although I am struggling to see what is different? is it the blue sky instead of a black background? if so it is very subtle and looks very nice

Yes, a subtle change and a bit "arty" for me, really just an excuse to use new found knowledge

I think it looks really good! Its a bit darker and more contrast around the edge? It gives the images a little bit more 3D feeling. I like it!
