21.06.2022 Summer Solstice. H-alpha solar imaging.

 *

 09.40[CET] 58F. Set up for imaging. Lots of cloud and fierce thermal agitation of the image on the monitor. The image is so soft that it looks like it has been smeared with Vaseline. [Thin grease.]

09.46 AR3038 Slightly better image than the first attempt.


10.30 No better images captured yet. Hopeless seeing conditions. Giving up until this afternoon.



 

 

18.30 Back to find the seeing initially improved.




 

 

 

 

18.40 Defocusing and thermal distortion of the
image on the monitor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

18.45 Last reasonable image.

 

 

18.50 Sun is behind the trees.
