They are ok for just holding my phone over the eyepiece lol

Nicely done! At that focal length a capture with good focus can be difficult, but you nailed it!

Hope to see some more soon :smiley:

All the best,
Mark

Glad you like it. Its not bad for just holding my phone over the eyepiece

how’d the imaging go? atmospheric seeing is always tricky, especially with solar stuff

Hi:
It’s necessary to record a large amount of images and select the best ones (which stands for a small percentage, around, for example, 10%). Then these images are stacked.
