Sky this Week

Weather was quite pleasant today here in Colorado. Temperature was around 50 deg. F, no wind, and clear skies. Atmospheric turbulence was fair as well, maybe 6/10, when I took these images just before 4pm. Region 10822 now near middisk continues to produce M-flares.

Above image was taken with Solarscope 50mm h-alpha telescope, Televue 2.5X Powermate, and Canon 300D camera.

Here is an image taken with the Stellarvue A1010 through a Baader filter with the Televue 2.5X Powermate and Canon 300D camera.

I was hoping to get some images of mars this evening, but unfortunately a bank of clouds moved in before it cleared my neighbors trees.
