Details:
The great sunspot in AR2738 approaches the limb, trailed by another new small set of pores; the sunspot still has interesting features within the spot itself extending deep into the umbra. Presented in high resolution hydrogen alpha, inverted and native, false color and native B&W. Captured with a 200mm F21 solar scope system and an IMX174 sensor.

You said you captured with a 200mm F21 solar scope system. Can you please share the name of this telescope?

Hi Philip,

Yes, its a C8 Edge HD SCT telescope with a full aperture Aires 214mm triband D-ERF with a Baader 2 UV/IR block filter to handle the thermal load. From there, its a Daystar Quark Chromosphere for the HA filtration, operating at F42 at the etalon. I focal reducer it with a 0.5x focal reducer on the nose of a camera to F21, and sample with the ASI174MMs (IMX174 sensor) big 5.86um pixel sizes.
