Taken from Oxfordshire, UK with a Coronado PST H-alpha solar telescope + Celestron 3x Barlow and ASI120MC camera. The telescope was on an EQ5 Pro mount, tracking at solar rate.
2,000 frame video captured with SharpCap, the best 75% stacked using Autostakkert! 3, then processing was done using Lightroom, Photoshop CS2, Fast Stone Image Viewer and Focus Magic.
This was an impressive region of prominence activity on the south eastern limb, and it was amazing to see how the area had changed in the space of an hour. There were several filaments visible on the disc as well.

2021-04-19. East of the Alpine Valley (top left) we have crater ARISTOTELES (53 miles across), South of that we crater EUDOXUS (41 miles wide) and at bottom-left we have the amazing craters-within-a-crater formation called CASSINI (35 miles). On the middle-right we have the 24 mile-wide crater BURG with it's terraced walls and central peak.
Lots of interesting things to see around here including ridges and wrinkles near BURG and a lava filled crater with just the rim showing between the Alpine valley and Aristoteles (EGEDE)

My best Jupter, so far. This one is taken in RGB on November 25 2012 at 21:29 UTC, using a Celestron C8 scope and a TIS DMK21AF04 planetary camera. Used also Astronomik RGB filters and an Antares 3x barlow lens (~7m focal lenght).
Stacked best 600 of 1500 frames/channel. Each channel was 50 s @30 fps, with pauses of 10 s between each.
Processed using Castrator, Autostakkert, and Registax 6 for wavelets and finally using Maxim DL for Richardson-Lucy deconvolution and color recomposition.

It was supposed to be cloudy all day, but the sky was relatively clear, so I decided to attempt a short imaging session.
To my delight it stayed clear until 10pm, so also took a chance at Jupiter, which rose to 30 degrees or just above the tree line.

Tiny crop from the Eastern limb of the Sun where the things were happening during March 20th eclipse.
To watch the action take a look on Original size image (animated GIF).
Main window shows the final frame with the Moon getting where :)
The sequence spans about one hour (32 frames each 2 minutes) from the beginning of the eclipse at 12:12 to 13:23 GMT+4 - slightly past maximum as seen from Moscow.
Images were prepared as describe here, cropped, rotated, masked and blended for contrast enchancement, upscaled and saved as animated GIF. Flickr tends to stop playback of low framerate videos near the middle of the movie so GIF again.
Note: well, dark frame substraction is needed if faint stuff is to be pulled out.
Note 2: I have used two masks - one with gamma>1 for the disk and another with lowered white-point for proms. They were used for all frames. And the images had accumulated some shift due to imperfect alignment - hence the dark band along the limb. For top precision each frame should be masked individually. Next time I'll try to employ PS actions for this.
Upd. 23.03.2015: I have replaced the original image with more precisely aligned version.

It was a cold, clear night in the UK on 24 November so I used my Seestar to take a 2 minute RAW video (.AVI) of the moon. I used Autostakkert! 3 to integrate the best 50% of the frames then I used AstroSurface to crop the image, sharpen the data, correct the white balance and adjust the saturation to bring out the mineral colours.

On 2014 October 23, we used the Coranado 60mm H-alpha solar telescope on a CGEM with a Point Grey Flea3 color CCD to capture these images from Cerritos College in Norwalk, CA. The frames span about 25 minutes of the eclipse, beginning at 15:20 PM PDT. Students in my Tuesday and Wednesday Observational Astronomy labs helped me process the movies into individual frames using AutoStakkert 2 and GIMP. The individual frames were assembled into an animation in GIMP and PS CS 5.1.
The sun had an enormous active region (AR 2192) at the time of the eclipse, and some small flaring activity is visible in the video. There is also a large filament that gets obscured by the moon, and many prominences, which show hydrogen gas, danced around the limb of the sun.
