The sun has become pretty active lately. Unlike the moon, the sun changes very fast. It’s dynamic with flares, sunspots, spicules, filaments, and prominences. I took these with my big refractor, the Daystar Quark Chromosphere eyepiece, and the ZWO 174mm camera. The power on these is large, but I don’t know a way to say the power in numbers. The telescope is 805mm in focal length then there is a 4.2x power in the eyepiece to magnify it even more. So these images are very close up.
These images seem to come from the southern hemisphere of the sun. I was using an EQ mount and the orientation can be confusing. I’ll work on that for future shooting sessions. The orientation I assume is from solar observatory images taken that day.
The below images seem to come from the northern hemisphere of the sun, but the orientation on EQ mounts is very confusing. I get that from observatory images of the same day.
