A few shots of a minor flare on the sun April 21 2022

These two shots were taken at the beginning and at the middle of a flare using a Lunt 60mm pressure tuned solar telescope.
Images captured using a Skyris 236M mono CMOS video camera with a 2X Barlow at 1028 X 768.
I Stacked 110 images with Autostakkert3 and sharpened using Topax Sharpen AI.
Final processing in Photoshop 2022 to add color and trim artifact from edges.
Good to see Bwana is still shooting solar.
Shout out to Sonny and Craig.
Stay safe...

Nicely done and, yes, I'm still trying to shoot solar when skies permit. Most of my solar imaging buddies sold their equipment at the end of the Sun's last active period.
