Solar Imaging

Best Solar H-Alpha Images

chromosphere & white light

I took a few minute to set up my instruments to capture these images. The conditions today were not fantastic but was somewhat smooth air with only minimal haze or high wispy clouds.  My biggest enemy was the dust spots on my imaging sensor, and no matter what I did I had a hard time cleaning it.  In the meantime I have ordered a lens pen that I will pack with my kit.

Speaking of kits, I plan on putting together one or two cases that will hold all my set up gear; Tablet, cables, cameras, extenders, reducers, adapters, etc.  Right now I carry it all in a box and that is asking for troubles.
