First solar image

[Astroblagger]

Got some baader filter sheet recently and made a filter, So got my first solar photo pleased i got afew spots. Single shot taken with 450D, megrez 72 through X2 barlow. There seems to be alot of dust or debries in the optical path though, would flats get rid of these?

Flats would get rid of the bunnies but how would you take them? Getting enough light out of a light box with the exact same filtering in place might be difficult??

My own early efforts with a Barlow have shown me that I need a new Barlow...

Cleaning has not worked. It is over 15 years old so not to worry too much, I guess.

Well i like it. Not sure how to eliminate the dust bunnies other then cleaning the lens.
