Three superb images of our active Sun by Honor Wheeler taken on the 27th October 2024 and 11th August 2024 from Dartford.  All 3 images consist of a Solar H-alpha image and a White light image overlaid.  The 2 images on the 27th are the same; the 1st has just been processed in colour.

[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.
