A bit of a change in my solar gear has taken place.
I bought a second hand Lunt 60mm solar telescope. A bigger aperture than my PST, which I have now sold, so I'm hoping to get some more resolution. June was a pretty poor month for sunny days so not much chance to see the Sun but I did manage a couple of days.

2011 June 02 First attempt at imaging with the Lunt, still a lot to learn. Move your mouse cursor across the images below to see a "colourised" version of the image.

2011 June 28 My images are now captured on a DMK31USB camera. This has a larger chip than my modified webcam and a higher capture frame rate.
