A couple solar attempts

I finally got a chance to play with my Lunt LS35T solar scope. I tried a couple different cameras before finally having some success with a Meade DSI IIc color imager. One of the images I changed to gray scale just to bring in more detail, the other I played with the colors to make the sun yellow/orange just for the 'effect'. Focus is the most difficult part as you are outside in the bright sunlight, trying to see the image on a computer screen. I will work on that a bit more the next time out as both of these are just a bit out of focus. I was still able to pull out a few of the prominences along with a bit of the granularity on the surface in both images. .001 exposure time on both.
