the archipelago of AR1520 new
      #5311830 - 07/10/12 07:03 PM Attachment (23 downloads)

Tomorrow is forecast to have better seeing, but I couldn't pass up the clear skies this morning and the chance to record this beauty. A small crop is attached... the full image can be seen here:

Captured with my A-P 10" mak/cass with Baader film filter.

cheers,

Nice shot with very fine detail. Heck there's even details in the fingers of the penumbra.

Alan, I thought it was illegal in New York to image the Sun with any telescope larger than 8".

Great image as always!
