First go at solar, focusing needs some work and who know's what I'm doing with settings and processing, but here goes....

SW 200p, Baader Solar Film, 350D, single frame, ISO100 @ 1/2500 sec. Levels and curves in PS CS5

Here's a couple more, 1st one is pretty much as before except in focus a bit better and at 1/4000 sec,

Second one is still ISO100, but at 1/125 with the appature cut down to 50mm.

Some sun spots in 100% size (as taken). curves and levels tweaked. Taken from the second image above.

Thanks for the kind words. It's more luck than judgement I think lol

Outstanding Mike.

Love the close up.

Makes me wish I was at home.

Thanks folks :) I think if I cut the appature further still and increase the exposure time I think I should be able to pull some more detail :unsure: . I'm pleased so far, but know there's a lot I can still do with what I have I'm sure. Practice makes perfect I guess.
