FANTASTIC IMAGES DODI!!!
Which kind of filter did you and how did you apply it?
Considering the seeing conditions and the few frames stacked it is a truly outstanding result Dodi.

Truly beautiful!!!!

AR 898 today!

Posted By Gianluca Valentini

Hello guys,

today I tried the 898 at F45. I thought that it would have come out worse, but I'm quite happy with it. I could only use 35 frames of 500. The image is reduced to 80% of original size.

Hello guys

here is another shot of the 898 taken today a few hours ago. It still shows "the bridge into hell" structure but in a different position.

A prominence today

Posted By Gianluca Valentini

You can appreciate from these two pictures how fast this prominence was changing shape. I wish I had more time to record it at time intervals!

Ciao all
