June 11, 2021 WL spots, Ha ARs, prom

Post by Astrophil »

Hi All,

Yesterday I received some Baader solar film and green filter. Today I gave them a try even though there wasn't much in the way of spots. H alpha was a different story with three nice regions to capture and a nice prom. All shot with the 6" Mac, 2x telecentric, and Grasshopper camera.

All are very beautiful Phil!
But I fall in love with your prom.
I wonder if I will ever have th proper seeing to make a photo with such a resolution... :-(
Any idea of your seeing while imaging these shots?
Thanks for sharing,

Phil,
All of these images look really good. My favorite is the first colored wl image. The granulation is really nice! The last one I really like too. That prom looks like an overweight giraffe grazing on solar grass!!

Have a sunny weekend!

Really good images, Phil. Love that sort of arching of the prom, looking almost like a magnetic loop.

Well done !
