Sun in H-Alpha 28th of January 2021
Another cold (-10 degrees C) and clear day allowed for a quick session during my lunch break.
Equipment used for this image was a Coronado SolarMax 60 II w/BF15 filter, Baader 35nm H-Alpha filter and ASI ZWO 178MM camera. Everything mounted on a Sky-Watcher SolarQuest mount.
Stack of the best 60% (1650 of 2751) images captured with an exposure time of 28ms and 30fps. Stacking done in Autostakkert 3, sharpening in AstraImage and contrast stretching in Adobe PhotoShop.
Best regards,
Arne

Re: Sun in H-Alpha 28th of January 2021
Thanks all,
Mark: Very chilly indeed. Must keep the imaging sessions short, so not much time to tweak and fine-adjust settings.
Terry: That was a nice surprise. Thanks for letting me know!!
