NIce to see images of what you have visually observed.
Good old Sol is putting on a show for us Solar observers and imagers at the minute 😀
Thanks for sharing your fine images.

May one ask what you used for these fine gems - certainly beats mine hands down and over!

Hello Geoff.

Firstly thank you for your kind words.

As to the gear, I use a double stacked 60mm Lunt solar scope, a ZWO ASI174mm camera with tilt adaptor and different barlows or Powermates. With the exception of the full disc which was just the camera and scope, the remaining images had the Altair Astro 3x Barlow in the image train.

Fantastic pics. I like the colours on the first one but the details on the others are amazing.

Thanks Hugh, much appreciated.  Apart from the DS, a similar setup to mine! 

I, obviously,  need to practice more! Still waiting for the sun to arrive today! Rather opaque altostratus and altocumulus up above.

I've enquired about a DS filter - 60-90 days, whilst Quark chromo is 2-3 weeks!

Decisions upon decisons!
