Partial Solar Eclipse in H⍺- 10 June 2021

[Hughsie]

Thursday morning started with a clear sky so I was up early to set my gear up and capture some of the early morning events on the Sun. The forecast was for clouds and I just hoped that it would stay clear enough so I could watch the partial eclipse unfold. As many of you experienced, that was not to be the case.

So here is a selection of images which captures the day for me;

 

Image 1- Small prominence on the north west limb. Exposure 18 ms, Gain = 210. 600 frames captured, best 25% stacked.

 

Image 2 - Impressive prominence on the south west limb. Capture details are the same as Image 1.

 

Image 3 & 4 - Close up of AR12832, a small active area north of the disc centre. Exposure 11 ms, Gain = 45. 1,000 frames captured, best 25% stacked.

           

 

Image 5 - AR12829 now close to the south west limb. Exposure 13 ms, Gain 30. 1,000 frames captured, best 25% stacked.

 

Image 6 - Full disc of the Sun taken at 08:34 UT. Exposure 2.5ms, Gain = 0. 1,000 frames, best 25% stacked.

Image 7 - A still shot of the eclipse underway, taken at 09:38 UT. Exposure 2ms, Gain = 0. 500 frames, best 25% stacked.

 

Finally, the partial eclipse itself. 62 frames taken between 09:10 and 10:04 UT with a 30 s gap between each. Some frames have been removed as cloud started to move in.

 

Have good day all.
