Description

The Sun is the telescopic part of our daytime program. If the weather is good, we are also cheerful and whoever comes and shows us the surface of the Sun as well as the protuberances.

Today has developed a pretty nice sized specimen, so I was with him trying to capture it. I really don’t understand Sun Photography, but I had a planet camera and I tried. The image was made in primary focus. I didn’t want to mess with the 3x Barlow lens.

I made two videos. One was set to the surface, while I used a slightly longer exposure time for protuberance. I tried to work them together. Of course, the fit is not the best, but for the first time I was able to do that.

The colors are artificial. I watched from a Youtube video how the color balance is adjusted.

At first the picture was often taken for perceptual purposes but my friend encouraged me to upload it.
