AR2993 & 2994 WL Solar 19/04/22

Afocal image of today’s Sun through the Tak 76DCU and IPhone 11.

Lots of thin, high hazy cloud around which is killing some detail but seems to have improved in seeing. Hugely interesting and busy region, with another large sunspot rotating into view.

Very impressive detail - I've a way to go yet to get as good an image as that! Here's my efforts of same group a few days later. A very interesting group to follow. White light with FS60CB and single shot with old Motorola phone through LE10mm. H alpha with Lunt 50 and 16mm Nagler. First time I've captured any surface detail in H alpha, and a prom too as a bonus!

These are really good! The WL image is bang on and the last image shows both proms and spots, what’s not to love. I guess Taks make it easy though, eh? 😅

You might say that, I couldn't possibly comment Now if only Tak produced red wine
