COMMENTS:
|
My
best effort at photographing the Hydrogen Alpha Sun with the DSLR
camera thus far. I’m still working on a consistent
processing routine. Missing some details in the prominences, but
I’m very
happy with the disk detail visible. I’ll
just be glad when the Sun is a little more active. |
