Hi -res Solar H-a image (AR0621 04-Jun-04)

Aloha!

A few more practice shots before the main event... no time to putz
around with full processing (yard-work and work-work beckons!), but
here's a cropped section from the full disk image (single exposure
taken through an AP Traveler, Coronado Solarmax90 w/BF30, 4X TeleVue
Powermate, SBIG STL11K, 1500 pixel swatch cut from the 2600 pixel
diameter full-disk):

Need mo' time and much mo' clear sky! The reading of the chicken
entrails and tea leaves indicate good weather on Tuesday... if it
isn't rainy, foggy, or cloudy! )

Cheers,

Paul

day in question. g

Your stuff? Just keeps getting more impressive every time I look. You *are*
a most valuable resource(or player, which ever you prefer)
for this great hobby of ours.

Best regards,
Bill

Is it possible to do similar quality with an very good achromat? Where is
the raw image?
It is an astounding image however, I wonder if it is a result of the
processing. I would like to see
the result of the same kind of set up with a standard achromat for
comparison.

I was pondering your picture further and it is clear that the fires that
feed the earth are well captured.
That being said I am still wondering what an achromat would produce under
the same conditions.
I would like to see a back to back image.
