The Sun - 21st November 2015

[David Smith]

Well the Sun is out but with the wind gusting to ~40 mph and pretty awful seeing I am not going to get much today. Soft white light to kick off and will see if I can get some Ca-K or H alpha in a bit.

I've been wondering whether or not to set the Lunt up, David, but I think I'll sit indoors and wait to see your next picture before deciding whether or not to venture out into that icy wind

[David Smith]

Thanks both

@DRT - haha, PST is fairing somewhat better in the windy conditions than the big Evostar, so hopefully will have some H alpha to share later. Not sure any of the Ca-K data will be any good though

Nice work, David. Out with Quark and 85mm, seeing has improved from pants to dodgy. Worth a look, a nice AR and decent couple of proms.

Nice WL, hope the weather holds for you, AR2457 looks interesting, nice clear sky down the centre of the country managing to avoid me.

Thanks DoS. Yes, spotted the proms in Ca-K. Took some data but not sure what will come of it. Just back in from a quick session imaging with the PST so may get sometthing out of that. Going to be either a bumper day or real disappointing

Nice disk Dave. Got a quick look I white light earlier this morning, but seeing was pretty poor. Now it's wall to wall clouds again.

[David Smith]

Best I've been able to do with the Ca-K and H alpha data so far. Neither are really up to my expectations / standards but you gotta take what you can get this time of years. Some more data to play with later so may be able to improve on these yet.

Good set David, conditions were very poor. I managed a set of avis this morning but have yet to process prooerly.

Wow!! you managed to get some super shots, especially the CaK :) the wind was truly unbearable this morning but thankfully died away here this afternoon.

CaK looks to have fared very well considering, David

I wasn't going to image outside of summer but I couldn't resist an opportunity today  

[Pete Presland]

Excellent captures especially with the conditions. I was gutted to miss out on the clear skies today, but the seeing looks like it was brutal!

Very nice David. Bad time of year for solar for me too many trees and low sun
