Sol from the 3rd of March 2018.

Post by eroel »

Hi:
Nice sunny day, though in the afternoon it clouded, seeing was regular.
Stayed home and cleaned the roof observatory and took some FD´s in CaK and H alpha, and also used the 102mm f/7 Stellarvue refractor, fitted with a 4X Baader telecentric and an old Daystar T-scanner.
Did use the Chameleon-3 camera, I did forget how well it performs.
There is a nice big protuberance, but did not have time to make composites.
Thanks for looking,
Have a nice Sunday.
Eric.

Really nice images there Eric, the proms are absolute crackers though! Looks like on the eastern limb the region of plage is the remnants of AR12699 on the way back round.

Nice prom detail Eric.

Robert and Marios:
Thank you for the comments, the last one was taken with a Point Grey Chameleon3 camera fitted to a 102mm f/7 Stellarvue refractor fitted with a 4X Baader Telecentric and a Daystar T-scanner filter.
Best regards,
Eric.
