Nice crisp detail in the active regions - the top three are all winners for me.

Nice images! Thanks for showing me the sun while I am temporarily without my solar scope. I am currently in Florida to see this past Mondays launch.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments!

Brian: It's a PST Etalon and a Coronado BF10 along with my achromatic Celestron 102/1000 refractor.

Cai-Uso: Yes, the framerate of 15fps seems slowly, but I think it's enough for solar imaging at fair seeing conditions (should be my lunar cam!). The smaller unit size of the pixel is a big advantage for using higher gain in comparison to my DMK21 especially seen in prom imaging.

David: Hope you have enjoyed it!

Best,
Matthias
