Solar Imaging - Part 1: Hydrogen Alpha
Jul 22, 2023 17:15:45 #
The weather finally offered up a clear sky this morning. I took advantage.
I shot both Hydrogen Alpha and White Light solar. This post is the Hydrogen Alpha portion.
Equipment: Lunt 60 solar scope, QHY 462C camera, 2.5x PowerMate & iOptron CEM 26 mount.
Shot 3-4000 frames of video per region and extracted the best frame using AutoStakkert. Postprocessing in Lightroom/Photoshop.
Pop open the first image for a bit more detail.
Enjoy!
