Day 2 of owning a new (to Me) Lunt60 in preparation for the April 8 eclipse, first time posting here.
Lunt60 Single Stack+ ZWO 1600 Pro at 10C + Atlas EQ-G.
Acquisition in Sharpcap. 0 gain, 2.7ms exposure
PIPP: Cropping and centering
AS!3: selection of best 10% of 500 frames
ImPPG: deconvolution, sharpening, tone curve (inverted surface and stretched prominences)
Seeing, focusing, and pressure tuning were all suboptimal, but I’m still happy to have taken some data through the full process.
Comments and suggestions welcome.
I’ve never directly looked at the sun so I’d always assumed it was in color.
It puts out every in the spectrums we can and can’t see. This was taken with a mono sensor and through a very strong set of filters so there wasn’t really any color data to be had. That being said a lot of folks will add that classic orange hue that you see. I decided to stick to white.
