Charl, please educate this poor sap- on all your lovely images, there are two distinct edges. Is this you capturing two seperate layers of Sol 'atmosphere'?

[xtreemchaos]

thanks Swoop, yes its the thickness of the chromosphere mate, its the reason i dont duel layer my shots because it seams. to get lost. clear skys. charl.

[Radec]

Great images. This reminds me, the sun is getting high enough for me to crack out my solar gear.

 

[David Smith]

Well done Charl. I managed a quick look in WL this morning before the clouds came in. Not missing much from the looks of it.
