11-25 and 26 Ca, Ha and Continuum

Post by torsinadoc »

I had questionable seeing the last two days. I was able to get a Cak image on 11/25. The seeing rapidly declined over the morning and I was not able to get any worthwhile Ha or continuum. Today I was planning on viewing Ha but noticed the atmosphere was steady so i decided to attach the camera. The seeing started to quickly decline but I was able to get a reasonable Ha and continuum

11-25
Cak: 150 F8 (masked to 80) + zwo 290

11-26
Ha (lunt DS + 4x PM and basler 155). Looking at my FD, my tuning was off since there was double limb
Continuum: 150 F8, zwo 290

Very nice work Alan! All are great but the CaK and WLc images really do it for me.

Thanks to everyone for the compliments

James,
I agree. CaK and WL are probably my favorite, too.
