Description

First light with a DIY Sol'Ex spectroheliograph I built over the winter. The Sol'Ex was attached to a homemade 50/250 achromatic refractor - another little DYI project completed this winter.

The left and middle panels are captured at the Hα line and the right panel at the Ca-H line. Each image is a stack of ~10 scans.

Surely, it will be possible to improve on the image quality, but for a first light this is somewhat satisfying.
