APRIL 26TH - WL, my title has been stolen by AdeKing !!

Ade, you got there before me! I was going to use the title Cassiopiae on The Sun for my post, just went to post it and there it was already !! Still, great minds think alike I suppose lol.

Anyway, I was also observing with the Tecnosky 102ED F7 this morning, though the seeing was very poor visually.  I took a single frame with my Olympus E-M5 Mk11 and also made a crop of it.  It shows about what I could see in better moments.  Ade's drawing is far superior. 

The second crop is from one I took at about the same time yesterday morning, around 11am.

Excellent shots Paul. You’ve done well given the poor seeing today. I had some good moments visually at lunch time but it was generally pretty ropey!

Sorry to steal your thunder and thread title @paulastro but you've gotta be quick around here 😉.

You've managed some great images despite the seeing Paul.

I'm not so sure about that Paul, looking at your images shows me just how much more work I need to put into getting the sizing, spacing and proportions right in my full disc sketches.

Your two cropped shots show just how much it's all evolved overnight.

The seeing was really good here at 07:30 as the sun was between the roofs and away from heating plumes.
