Hi:
Spent the weekend at the rural observatory but it was hazy, cloudy and rained Friday and Saturday, but had some chances to get a few shots with the 6" f/12 refractor working at f/24 with an old Daystar ATM filter.
Thanks for looking, these were taken on Saturday morning through clouds and haze, later on it rained. (View from the hot room while I was processing one of the shots and was raining.)
Best wishes to all,
Eric.

Some really lovely prominences there you are lucky to have an observatory to be able to set up and set down very quickly when rain comes.

Re: Sol from the 25th of May 2019.
Alexandra, Maurits and Mark, thanks for the feedback.
Alexandra, yes I am lucky to have the 2 observatories always ready to open, the one at the rural place 135Km away and the one at home.
Mark, here is the panoramic view from the window that separates the control room from the scope room at the rural observatory.
The 6" f/12 AP refractor does not show, it is mounted behind on an old Losmandy HGM200 with Gemini control.
Thanks for looking.

Eric, those are all exceptional images! I do like the processing, very sharp and detailed leaving nothing to my imagination. The rural observatory is fantastic. It's not at all what I imagined when you talked about it. Thanks for posting the pictures.
Looks like your haze, cloud, and rain filter is working well.
