Sun in white light from 03.04.2022

 AR2978 and  AR2981 in the perfect position today.

all White light close up images captured with Evostar 120mm, TeleVue  X3 Barlow, zwoasi174mm camera, Baader Continuum filter, full disc at native FL.

 

Captured quite a bit of data with the Lunt as well, including this 2 pane close of some terrific filaments and activity.  I have a 12 pane mosaic, that is proving to be a "pane" getting a satisfactory end result, so that will have to wait.

Love your close ups. All good captures. But that second one down is showing lovely fine detail Pete. All your closeups have been extra quality. That Evo performing well consistently.

Those are very good images Peter.

I agree, super granulation on that image 👍

I have thought about getting some 3.8 Baader film, to make a filter for my c9.25. imagine the granulation with that, assuming the conditions supported such a large aperture 🙂

The Resolution will be a lot better. As you suggest if conditions allow.  I am also interested in the 3.8 Film. And what benefits it has over the ND 5.0 film.Is it just sensitivity or a clarity thing too
