Here are two images of the sun taken this afternoon. Each was a 1000 frame capture with the best 20% of frames stacked and processed in Registax 6. Because I am on vacation, my normal processing workflow could not be followed, so these images are just the output of Registax. The lack of processing tools was more than offset by the rustling of palm trees in the breeze and the sounds of the surf as I captured these images. Equipment was PST-DS and LifeCam.
The trials, tribulations and small triumphs of a Charlotte, NC astronomer imaging under Bortle 8/9 skies.
