Quick animation of small sunspot group

Post by AJamesB »

So, I had to throw the setup together, find an interesting target and get recording as clouds were starting to roll in, so orientation is likely wrong and I don't remember which sunspot group I imaged either, but at least I barely beat out the clouds, lol. Lost the last 3 videos of the series to clouds, but I'll take what I can get. Also tried not to blow out the highlights, but failed on that front. I'll leave a touch more room at the end of the histogram in case things get brighter later, as they did a bit on this one. I'm always a little overly optimistic on just how much magnification the seeing can support, so once again if you squint your eyes things clear up a bit:)
