What cam?

It was a Lunt H-alpha with a borrowed Double Stack filter. The 60mm model.

The Double Stack didn't do much to bring out detail IMHO but the sun was getting low in the west so that my have had something to do with it.

Cool shot Russ. What solar scope are you using?

Thanks Marc. Ya between the focuser and the pressure adjustments it's a wonder I got one even this close.

Russ, I've heard that about focusing those things, looks like a pretty good job to me. Marc

Thanks Mark.
I love the fact that one of our club members owns this. A short 30 minute drive and I get to give it another try.

First ever photo of this type for me. A tad out of focus - that solar scope was a bear to get an sharp image!
