Smerral Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 This morning's CaK sun, shot with the Altair Astro 102 ED-R (stopped down to 70mm) and Altair GPcam V2. Filter was the Lunt CaK B600. The full disc is a mosaic of 10 panes. The patchiness is due to me not getting my flats sorted yet. The close up was shot with a 1,5x barlow. 15/300 frames stacked. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryMcK Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 How are you doing your flats Brian? I do it with white cereal box plastic innards covering the scope and pointing at the sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case the clingfilm I used was not opaque enough. Your idea sounds good though. I may try using that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
