AR2737 & Full disc | HA | April 2nd 2019

Post by MalVeauX »

Heya,

It's been raining and nasty here in Florida, but this afternoon, I left work early and the sky cleared up as it got later, around 1730 in the evening. Seeing was not great, but it was manageable. AR2737 has evolved into a fairly nice little spot with visible umbra and some interesting plages and filament activity around the area.

Thank you so much ! Fantastic ! I am going to try and get some practice with deconvolution and processing to see how my system matches (Quark Chromosphere/ED70 and ASI120mm-S on a slow laptap USB2.0.

Thanks!
