Blue Sky Sol ~ Hazy Seeing.
Hazy skies this morning, though still a lovely blue, solar seeing wasn't up to much.
After a major fight with the Samsung S6, I was able to capture one clear shot.
Prominence detail was poor, the insertion of a black photoshop disc did help a bit in the final picture.

This morning's Sol images.
Blue skies this morning, that was until about midday!
Then in came the clouds, and as I write this (15h37mUT) the wind is picking up and it looks like a storm is looming.
I managed these images earlier on, so today wasn't a total solar loss.

Today's Sol in Ha light.
March 7th 2022 ~ 12h26mUT |
Lots of Ha activity today. Plus as a bonus a beautiful prominence around the 240 degree area!
Sky blue a plenty this afternoon.
SFI hovering around 120 - SN about 77
With the K Index currently hovering around five it's a good time to keep a look out for possible aurorae!
The Sun has definitely woken up!

Sol image - March 5th 2022.
Scudding clouds this morning, cleared up around midday, a beautiful afternoon for solar observing.
PST working well today, it revealed several good prominences and two big sunspot groups, and a few filaments.
Still processing the filament pictures, will post them and a white light image tomorrow.
