Seeing was excellent on the 7th of January and offered up a rare opportunity for Solar imaging. And the solar limb was positioned perfectly for a really awesome show in our Hydrogen Alpha Scopes.

Shot with my Lunt Solar Systems LS60THa w/B1200 Blocking Filter.Camera is my trusty Canon 40D, using EOS_MOV_REC to capture mono avi frames from the Live View feature of the camera. Mount is a Losmandy G-11 mounted in a Skyshed POD.


I shot 1500 frames for each half of the image, stacked in Registax 6 and processed the best 25%. Then I stitched the halves together in and colorized in Adobe Photoshop CS5.1
