AR2674 White Light retrospective!

[Macavity]

Missed out on the (really) "best bits" with AR2674?

But just for fun an amination of WL, HA, Solar Cont,
and CaK (DS) from one weeks ago! (2nd Sept.)
As ever the trusty Altair Astro ED66 (0.8x Reducer).

And a close up in Solar Continuum, Barlowed ~3x:

Looking towards the Frankenscope build, I was just about to put the (new) ST120 through
it's paces -- Comparing (White Light) via a *standard* H-Alpha filter versus Solar Continuum!
But then we had a Power Cut!  (Lasted until the clouds rolled in!) But a tentative conclusion
is that a stopped down ST120 objective performs best at Green wavelengths and not *quite*
so well at H-Alpha? There are a lot of unknowns? It might still be OK with the Lunt Etalon? 

Undeterred, still pressing on with the (MDF-Light!) *ERF Filter Cell* and the OTA "Bung"... 

    

Oh yeah... Yesterday's image of the *departing* spots. Looks quite like some of the others? 

Back to wrestling with water pipes to get rid of *some* of RAIN that lands in Obsy Gutter!

Nice set of images, some excellent details visible.
