Description

Here is my 2nd solar pic. I was just glad I was able to bring out the prominences. My last solar outing was primarily practicing capture. The only time I had was when the sun was high in the sky and the seeing was bad. But even after losing 2 pounds in sweat, I had a good time. This time I set up a pop-up tent and placed the AZ-EQ5 in the doorway of the tent. I set up a table inside for my fan, eyepieces, and laptop to survive capture practice. And this pic was my first processing practice after. So much to learn but so much fun even if the pics don't rate! I had to crop this pic much more than I wanted. 

Cheers,
Rob
