25-04-2021 "Relaxing Garden Day" ARs showing Activity

Post by rcwinter »

Hi All

Yesterday was a nice relaxing day for the plodding about in the garden, although I still had time for a look see and enjoy the moment with solar activity.

I think most struggled with focusing and it was just a case of waiting for the few seconds of stable air to grab a few frames, it was just a great time being out, albeit later this week it is going to rain. got out while I could.

Some nice flares and plenty of surface action, I have had better days

Rich

Wow...I certainly need a " relaxing garden day " to observe and image without nothing else to do.

Your images look good.

Hi Guys

Many thanks for all the great comments, it was a good day, no such luck today though not enough time or sun to have a go

Looks like rain in the clouds too

Many thanks
