Hi Guys,


As an adjunct to my previous message I posted an image to the Solar section of our group pages recently. Yahoo did send a message out to the list but that might have been something I neglected to do. I mention it as it's an example of the poor results or poor in comparison to what Milton and Alan posts a few hours or so ago. The file is called 0-sun-01.05.2012.jpg

Hi Folks;

While I was re formatting, zero erasing, unbacking up all my partitions on the MBP17", I decide I would reprocess my July 9th Sun spot movies (45 gigs of video data):

Here is the best of them - using Alan Friedman's sun color schema:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Astro_IIDC/files/Solar/SunSpot_20120709_120210L_MJA.jpg

This was taken 3,850 mm focal length (2.5x Televue) with the MAK 127 mm Orion scope white light filter, a red Astrodon filter and the Grasshopper 2 camera cooled to 25°C (it's 43°C in the sun today - 33°C in the shade). Best 200 frames out of 6,200 captured - stacked and aligned with Astro IIDC - 16 MAP points.

Not as good as Alan's :

, but getting there :)

TTYL..
