Messing about with a PST

January's turning out to be a bit of an experimental month for me.

As Maurice has been prodding me for not posting much on the PST and
the Sun was out yesterday in Selsey, I had an extended session with
the little scope, playing with a number of different imaging options.
About 4 hours in total and despite the beautiful sunshine, I was
frozen to the core when I finished.

Some interesting results using a StarLight Xpress SXV-M8C but this
will take a bit of processing before I'm going to release the pics.

Yesterday's Sun had some small prominences as well as a couple of
monster filaments (one can be seen looking like a snake at the bottom
of the linked image). The PST is certainly an interesting scope.
