Solar Imaging Session - May 29, 2026

The sky this afternoon is clear and seeing is very good. It is also super hot and humid. Lots of sunspot groups across the Sun's disk but the prominent active regions are AR4455 and AR4446 . They also exhibit slightly flaring activity on its region. There is also a large eruptive prominence in the SW limb.

Comet Imaging Session - May 3, 2026

The sky this evening is partly hazy specially in the western horizon and I was at the cemetery in the late afternoon after sunset thus use that opportunity to capture Comet C/2015 R3 PanSTARR low in the western horizon using Dwarf 3 Smart Scope at Astro Mode with VIS Filter at AZ Mode with total exposure of only 3mins at Gain 60. A faint tail can still be seen despite the hazy sky.

The sky this morning is clear and seeing condition is fair. AR4420 Region has the largest sunspot group on the Sun's disk right now together with numerous smaller active regions scattered across the Sun's disk as well.
