Sun 13 Nov in H-alpha

A very lucky gap with the clouds thinning enough to get a bright image of the Sun yesterday appeared. The thin clouds still passing across the face were fun to watch but not to image! This was the best output before the clouds rolled in thick for the rest of the day.

The thin cloud still is evident despite the stacking routine although I am amazed at how well AviStack was able to cope with the varying brightness as the clouds passed and produced quite an even output considering.

Active areas 1123, 1124, 1125 and 1126 are quite clearly visible as well as several stunning prominences and filaments. Quite an impressive view of the activity on our nearest star!

Thank you for looking.

"Thank you for looking"?? - I think we should be saying "Thank you for sharing"!! - that is simply awe inspiring.

I was watching the 3 proms that are in the 7 o clock position live thanks to Tim Patton.

Hey Sherri,

Very Nice full disk.

amazing as usual !!!

Looking again at this I just love that filament in the upper right that passes from the disc out beyond the limb. Brilliant.

Thank you all for the kind comments.

Just hoping to see the sun again this month... not looking good for the Northeast!

Stunning shot!

Odd "blob" of a prominence on the disk, not the usual elongated jobbie?!

Sheri, there is quite a bit of detail in the proms. Did you take the proms exposure without the Double Stack or with?

[sheri_barri]

Hi Bill,

The image is from one exposure setting but the proms are processed separate from the surface features enabling the most detail to be obtained from the stacked image file.

Cheers,

Sheri

Your images are, as ever truely wonderful Sheri. I wish I could get even half as good as you. Hows Aberdeen for snow and sky, here we have had 2" snow with nice clear patches on and off - unfortunately howver the patio door has frozen well shut!

(PS Was in Banchory not so long ago doing some work, lovely sky at night!)

[sheri_barri]

Hi Kev,

Thank you for your kind words. The scopes are snowed in for the foreseeable future which is a shame. Although, we've had a couple days of 'thundersnow' which has been very interesting!

Cheers,

Sheri
