Title: Sun 1st May at 3 Wavelengths Post by: markt on May 02, 2011, 11:49:39 am Pretty much as the title says, Hydrogen Alpha, CaK and white light. Lots going on el-sol lately, so if you have the facility to view I would recommend it!

Thanks Anthony Title: Re: Sun 1st May at 3 Wavelengths Post by: Big Dipper on May 03, 2011, 02:05:38 am Excellent shots Mark. Unfortunately I'm not equipped to do something similar, myself but have enjoyed seeing some lovely footage by various amateurs, including some amazing short video footage of flare activity.
