Timelapse of the Sun and stills, H-alpha Sept 4

Acquisition type: Lucky imaging

First time getting the telescope out in a while! Summer started with poor skies due to Canadian wildfires. That persisted for quite some time, then the skies were just plain poor and not to mention hot and muggy. I just decided to take the summer off. Setup the rig on September 4th, Meteoblue showed excellent skies for a change. Wish I'd got up sooner but slept in since I would be starting nightshift later that day. Stills were around 11am and time lapse was taken from 11:22 to 1:15pm (EDT).

Stills were best 300 of 5400 frames from 45" capture
Time lapse best 300 of 3600 frames from 30" captures with 30" delay between.

I don't use guiding, so the image border jumps around a bit (had to recenter a few times). I already cropped it quite a bit but wanted to preserve the proms and jets as much as I could so didn't fully crop it to common area.

I didn't have the camera properly aligned to solar north, so its a bit off axis. The animation was of the eastern limb, the stills are noted in their descriptions.

Thanks for looking!

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
