Apologies for not replying to everyone's posts recently, but I do read them all. I'm just a bit short of time at the moment with being busy at work and also at home too (getting things ready for the new boat).
On Saturday the forecasts were for amazing sunshine in the morning and with it being only the second sunny Saturday of the year so far, I cleared the diary and set up by 9am. Despite the forecast changing that morning to only sunny until 11am (not 12 anymore), it then changed to 10am. Well, I can say, I managed a 30 second visual through the eyepiece and it clouded up at 9:05am. The Sun looked amazing so I sat for a while watching the clouds scud across the solar surface and took some video anyway. I thought these would never process in ASK3, but they did! I have no idea how because I usually get bad smears with far less cloud. By 9:27 it was all over and totally cloudy for the rest of the day
But, miraculously I got these with the Solarscope DSF100
