Solar white light images - 19th April 2021

[Stu]

I managed a bit of observing this morning, two very nice active regions visible, AR12816 and one that looks unclassified currently. I took a few images which weren’t great, then tried some video clips. By slowly going through and picking the best frames, I ended up with a reasonable amount of detail being visible. One or two strange black dots appeared in single frames, possibly fast moving satellites, not sure.

I got this with one of my 4 inch achro refractors, 3x barlow and Olympus Pen E-P2 in jpeg mode this afternoon at about 1622 GMT

Edit: First light with another 4 inch refractor: single exposure; nothing fancy as far as processing goes, just stuff like resize, brightness, artifact removal and unsharp mask.
