This was pretty simple. Except for the Focal Reducer causing Color Aberration and lack of fine focus.
I was able to get some nice surface texture and Sun Spots in the Cropped shot.
Canon T2i converted to H-alpha
Mease 8" 2000mm
ISO 200
f/6.3 .75 Focal Reducer.
1/100 sec.

Those are pretty good! I just purchased some filter material and once I get something adapted for my camera, I'll be trying a few myself...
