Plages & Proms | HA | June 21rst 2020

[MalVeauX]

Heya,

Not much going on today despite having a clear sky this morning again in this rainy wet humid part of Florida's summer cranking up. The solar minimum persists. There are two small plages that are visible and a smaller but fair prominence. Took at look at them in two scales with a 60mm at critical sampling and the 120mm at critical sampling. Seeing was pretty poor today, but lucky imaging prevailed.

Happy father's day to everyone!

Maximizing the 60mm aperture:

120mm aperture:

Solarmax 60 II DS Etalon + PST Etalon on ED80 (at F12 with 1.25x GPC) + 290MM for course scale partial disc
120mm F10 + PST Etalon (at F12 with 1.25x GPC) + Baader Red CCD-IR Block Filter + 290MM for finer scale partial disc

Very best,

[David Smith]
