Big full disc - SF50

[NickH]

Just completed this, composite of about 12 panes, some overlaying others to augment data...it's not perfect, the joins are visible when you zoom in, and the differences in seeing become apparent, but ...hey ho

DMK21AU04.AS and the SF50

(click to enlarge)

The full size version is quite large...this one is somewhat cropped

Blimey - only if you look for them...

Very nice image(s), I do really like the sun in these wavelengths.

Cheers

Nice orange what do you mean its sun? Very nice image, and a lot going on in there! And hay, as long as it looks stunning, who need perfect?

Excellent image Nick. I just zoomed in and couldn't see any joins - but I did see some amazing detail!

[Starflyer]

That's a great image nick

Are the large dark patches at around 1 o'clock proms that are coming towards us, or something else entirely?

Thanks for sharing,

Wow, best solar pic I have seen.

They are indeed prominences on the surface (aka filaments), when they reach the limb, sometimes, you can see them go from one to the other (Pete L has a superb image of one such recent event)

Very good pic.

I hope that some of that detail may be visible in my white light set up.

That's just superb Nick. These solar images coming up on SGL are just getting so good, I see a saturation point if that is possible, where further improvement can't be made.

And if ever I need to get a wig, I hope the join is as bad as the ones in this image, Invisible.

Thank you everyone, I think the saturation point is not even close yet. If the new 100mm solarscope and the 200mm Lunt's perform as expected, we should be seeing some staggering images over the coming year or so.

hey ho indeed, it's marvellous.

It's very nice but couldn't you get rid of the black and white smudges?.......................................................

Excellent image, you have to look a bit hard for the joins, makes me want to invest in a solar filter. In fact I think i will.

Hot smudge...

Thanks everyone...I will get round to tidying up the joins..
