Hydrogen Alpha - Home made Coronograph.

Recently I decided to have a go at making my own "Coronograph" images.

Well almost; I cheated.

I simply took one of my hydrogen alpha images and opened it a Windows Paint Shop program. 

Then, after a bit of editing, here are the results.







Paint Shop allowed me to easily make a black disc that fitted over the solar centre.

So far it looks promising.
