Solar Imaging
17 January 2013
It was such a nice bright sunny day, that it called out for another solar imaging session....
Using the same set-up as the day before - the trusty 90mm refractor/finder scope, the 11" Orion glass white light solar filter, the 1.25" Zhumell zoom eyepiece and the simple Polaroid pocket camera.
Good results I must say.
With two consecutive days of solar imaging, it enables a 24 hour separation of solar rotation to be enjoyed...
Sunspot groupings 1652, 1654 & 1656 will soon slip over the solar limb.
I wonder what's coming up....?
