Solar Imaging Session - September 18, 2022

The sky before noon is clear and seeing condition is very good. AR3102 Sunspot Group is the biggest group on the solar disk right now with AR3100 Sunspot Group next and is also about to exit the SW limb. Not much solar activity on the Sun today. I was able to image in white light, Ha and CaK wavelengths.

The sky this late evening is cloudy and I was able to image the Waning Gibbous Moon through patches of open cloud hole. Image taken using ZWO ASI294MC PRO camera on Borg 76ED Refractor on Vixen GPDX mount.

Solar Imaging Session - September 11, 2022

The sky this afternoon is partly cloudy and hazy. Seeing condition is fair. AR3092 Sunspot Group is a joy to look at in Ha wavelength as it is accompanied by a huge horseshoe dark filament below it and near the SW limb. AR3088 Sunspot Group is growing in size while AR3100 Sunspot Group is also starting to grow near the SE limb. I was able to image in white light, Ha and CaK wavelength this afternoon. The AR3096 Sunspot Group is relatively small but is also very photogenic as it is accompanied also by a beautiful twisting dark filament as well.
