Hi:
Had a Sunday wthl almost no Sun, it was cloudy and rainy all day, so it was hard to catch the Sun when it showed through clouds for a couple of minutes.
Used the Solarmax 90-DS with the SKYnyx 2-2 and with the ASI290m, and also the 102mm f/9 Meade with a PST CaK mod.
Thanks for looking and best regards to all,
Eric.
P.S. I hope to be visiting England next weekend, will pick my Grandson at Stonyhurst College, he spent a year there, he told me that the College has an old observatory.

Very fine images, Eric.
Stonyhurst College is just down the road from where I live, just northeast of Preston, Lancashire. We might be able to meet up on Sunday afternoon if you're around. No obligation, of course, just an offer. Are you hanging around the area for a little while?

Pepe, Alfred, Mark and Stu, thanks for the feedback.
Stu, I have to look at the itinerary that my son arranged, because we will fly to London, then to Manchester and then drive to Stonyhurst.
Tomorrow I will find out, hope that we could meet, I am traveling with my wife, my son, my daughter in law and my granddaughter.
Best wishes tou you all.

Excellent images. I expect you are aware of the role Stonyhurst observatory played in solar research giving its name to Stonyhurst discs.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stonyhurst_Observatory.
Hope you enjoy your visit,
John

Valery, John and Maurits, thanks for commenting.
John, I was aware of the Stonyhurst history because my 16 year old grandson has stayed a year at the College and taken some astronomy classes and visited the Observatory many times.
He knows how to use all my scopes and cameras, so before he went to the College he used to ask me for permission to use the scopes to show his girlfriends the Moon and Planets.
I also did that when I was young.
Best regards,
Eric.
