Very nice Ha image Rainer. You certainly got more filaments today than I could see visually. And WoW, the WL Sun is blank. We need some nice sunspots!

Looks good, Rainer.

I had a brief look in WL yesterday as well. Wasn't much to see there indeed.

Yes Rainer, certainly a spotless Sun, but hopefully something better from the oncoming AR in the S.E.

Thanks for the images showing the many filaments.

Very nice Ha disks.
I’m interested in what your processing scheme is

Telescope is Takahashi FSQ 85-ED with a Canon 2x extender and a Lumenera Infinity 2-2M camera. Acquire Software is Lucam Recorder where I use a false colour mask in real time in order to get the black background into that grey.

I take 9 AVI videos each with 480 frames. Process them in AviStack to a single image. Then I import the 9 images into PS 2021 and assemble the full Sun disc. Stretch the histogram a bit and apply a fine Unsharp mask.


regards Rainer
