Active Sun

NEVER LOOK AT THE SUN DIRECTLY. Please click here for solar observing safely.
 
Two great images of the Sun taken on the 28th and the 30th of August by member Jim Burchell.  The images were taken using a Pentax KP attached to a F11 refactor, set at iso 100 and 1/400 second using a Baader solar film.  The images were then processed in Snapseed.

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="800"]20201227_1148UT_HW Image by Honor Wheeler Skywatcher ED80 refractor, Canon M6 Mark2 camera. EQ3 synscan mount. For the full disc I used a x2 Barlow and the close up x5 Barlow. Processed using PIPP, AS!3 & PShop elements6. I could have done better but didn't have clear skies really for long enough and at the moment the sun is so darn low! Anyway happy to get these.
