Pastel sketch of full solar disc in H alpha on July 14th

[acr_astro]

Hi all,

this afternoon we had a wonderful sky with some small white clouds and a lot of sunshine. So I set up the Lunt LS50 on the terrace and did a pastel sketch of the full solar disc in H alpha. Sun spot AR2565 was nicely visible on the solar disc and some nice prominence were visible at the limb.

Telescope: Lunt LS50THaB600PT
Eyepiece: Celestron X-cel 10mm
Date & Time: July 14th, 2016 / 1630-1700 CEST
Technique: Pastels and pastel pens on black sketching paper

I hope you like it.

Clear and sunny skies!
