Small Pore North West Region 06-02-2021

Post by Martin_S »

Today was my first opportunity to do some solar imaging in nearly 2 weeks. the Sun was quite featureless , but I managed to find a small pore in WL using my Mak 180 and ASI120mm camera at the Mak's native 2800mm focal length. The Ha images were taken with my Lunt DS50/60 tilt tuned telescope and ASI290mm camera.

Lovely shots Martin, glad you got some sun in! That Mak and 290mm make a perfect pairing in terms of sampling, makes a very nice setup!

That’s a beautiful FD, Martin. Nice pores too in WL.

I never could see a pore this morning. But seeing and clouds may have rendered it invisible. And pores can come and go quickly.

Nice job Martin!

Thank you for your comments. I was surprised to actually find the pore as it was so small.
