Rich,

I am sorry that I have not written a response sooner but I have been loaded with work. You H-alpha redering is fantastic! You have captured the granulated solar surface, faculae, sunspot, and prominences so well! A great job for your first rendering of our nearest star! I look forward to your future observations.

Carlos

Thanks so much Carlos! We're all hoping your work schedule lightens up soon, so we can experience the Cosmos through your excellent sketches and observation reports. BTW, congratulations to you and Sol Robbins for your superb sketches being included in that new Springer book about observing Saturn. I'd love to see a copy under my Xmas tree!

Rich,

Thank you for the compliment and wishes. I do hope to start observing the heavens soon. I have to pick up a copy of Julius Benton's excellent book on Saturn myself. I look forward to your wonderful observations in the future.

Carlos
