Full disk 26-05-20

This is a two panel mosaic, exposed separately for surface and proms.  Taken with Lunt 60mm and ASI 290MM.  Processed in AS!3, ImPPG, and PS.

 

Bit of unevenness in the disk, and some joins around the margins.  AS!3 didnt want to stack the top part of the disk proms, so I use planet mode and it worked ok but then I had to deal with a dodgy background.  New found respect for the solar imagers.

 

Here it is:

I found a link to a solar ruler by Guy Buhry and added it to my solar disk image.  The Earth to Moon distance really brings it home to me how big the sun is.
