I was pretty pleased with the results and just hope Eclipse day is just as clear! You can actually see a slight amount of surface granulation and the three sun spot regions AR 2277, AR 2280 & AR 2281 are all clearly visible.

The Sun
So in my last post I described the Solar Filter I built to enable me to image the upcoming partial eclipse. Amazingly, the day after I built the filter it was a lovely clear and sunny day and I got to see how good a job my filter had done. I set my camera up with 1/250s exposure, ISO 100 and F/10 to try and get the correct amount of light onto the sensor.
I was pretty pleased with the results and just hope Eclipse day is just as clear! You can actually see a slight amount of surface granulation and the three sun spot regions AR 2277, AR 2280 & AR 2281 are all clearly visible.
