Sun - with spots, including AR2738

Taken on 18 April 2019 at 02.32 pm bst with Celestron NexStar 6se telescope and ZWO ASI224mc camera, using Baader Solar filter and Skywatcher H-alpha CCD filter, the latter to give a narrow band light to prevent chromatic aberration.

 

Video was captured in SharpCap. Unfortunately, it was in raw8 mode so had to be debayered in PIPP before being processed in Autostakkert 2 and Lightroom, so gave this peculiar pink colour, but got to like it in the end!

 

The largest sunspot is AR2738.
