Only just got around to processing these but data was captured after squash this morning at 09:56.

Captured 200 frames in reasonable seeing, reduced to best 50% with Pipp, then Registax stacked all those above 95% of best quality which turned out to be 76 really good frames. Included a single frame lightly stretched and contrast added in curves to show the quality of the seeing.

1/2500s at ISO 100.

Nicely done John, I prefer Scotch to squash but it's a bit early yet

Great images. V hot here, I had to try hard to resist the chilled lager at 10.00am while imaging. I was already avoiding doing the Chores List prepared by my wife (helpfully divided into "light" and "heavy" duties) and seeing me with a can in my hand might have tipped her over the edge again...

V hot here too, got a bit of an emergency now, thought I had a case of Thatchers Gold but I seem to have inadvertently drunk it, found a couple of cans in the camper van but will have to go shopping now and I've only done half the hoovering, have to prioritise these things

Nice shots John. I have been looking on and off all day. Noticed some faculae on the East limb. Let's hope it's something coming on to the disk.

I saw that and caught on the images too. I thought I saw a pore there first thing but haven't seen it since.

Another very nice set of images.
