9 Mar 18 H-Alpha Sun from Singapore (11 Mar18 images added)
I have put hi-res imaging on hold as we continue to have cloudy days.
In between clouds, I did FD, X3 barlow and x5 barlow imaging with ASI174mm camera with a NR eliminator. Scope was a Borg 77 fitted with a DS Solarscope SF50 etalons.
Full disk imaging show a spotless Sun.
The image with a x3 barlow:
And next stretching it further with a x5 barlow:
Hope clouds will go away soon.

Re: H-Alpha Sun from Singapore (9Mar18)
Thanks Alexandra, Brian and Mark.
Though it has been very cloudy almost every day, patience paid off with some images using the SF50DS on a Borg 77 refracotr and the ARIES D-ERF on a 150mm refractor and Lunt 50Tha.
FD in H-Alpha on 11 Mar 18 using the Borg 77 + DS SF50
Setup of Hybrid ARIES D-ERF + 150mm refractor + Lunt 50THa
Just managed to get 1 chance with the hybrid. Was glad to have got the following image before clouds covered all....

Very nice images considering the conditions and a great set-up, Alfred.
Here we are waiting tonight for the THIRD Nor'easter in less than two weeks..... no solar imaging, only snow
