Hello:
Yesterday was a hazy cloudy and rainy day, though before lunch, I saw the possibility of getting the sun imaged when the vail of clouds got thinner.
As the images from the 7th, I had to keep moving the sliders during the recording so the SER stream could show the sun, even that the seeing was not too bad as shown with the SSM.
I used the Meade 102mm f/9 refractor fitted with a CaK PST mod and with and without a 0.5X reducer.
As for the H alpha shots, I used the Solarmax 90-DS-BF30 also with and without the 0.5X reducer.
The camera was the SKYnyx 2-2.
Did a quick dirty processing and just took one prominence SER stream for the H alpha FD, due to the fact that protuberances were small and the haze did not help. BTW, all the images were taken with different recording setting, though some look equal.
Thanks for looking,
Eric.

Hi Eric...
These are outstanding images, especially with the conditions you were working in
I've got cloud and snow int he weekend forecast, so I hope this AR holds on until Monday which is the first day with sun promised.
