Sunspot observation

Posted on 2011-04-24 Updated on 2016-06-17

Enjoying Easter holidays with a bright shiny and sunny day with my telescope. Considering it has been very nice weather during the entire holidays here in Sweden, this must have been the best as there are two sunspots appearing on the surface of the sun (1195, 1196 and 1193).

This image was taken by using a Mülar filter installed infront of my refractor (William Optics Fluorostar 110 FLT APO) at ISO 100, shutter speed 1/800, WB: 7500 K and was processed with curves and levels adjustments in Adobe Photoshop.
