Description

Pretty bad conditions

Heat index was over 100, seeing was 2 and transparency was 3. Lots of clouds. It took 1 hour to capture 40 seconds of images. I didn't even try Ha. I am still testing the continuum set up. I used the IMX 174 sensor with the continuum filter and had to resample the Calcium by 1.6x to match the size. Oh well it is a learning experience.

ES 102 was masked to 60 for both images. At 80mm the continuum was like trying to focus soup.
