Today's Sun with the Dwarf 3
I'm impressed with the quality of the D3 solar filter. It really pulls out detail on the sun, including the solar granulation, which I did not expect to see with such a small aperture. This image is today's Sun. It's a stack of 39 x 1000th sec images. The stacked PNG was wavelet processed in Registax 6 to resolve the fine detail and then cropped.
