H alpha solar activity (4-Jun-2025)

The weather was clear, but windy. So the images aren't the best, but still good.

I kinda like the soft look it has, the details aren't sharp or very well resolved but it's kinda neat looking

yo do you mind explaining to me how i can tellthe difference between h alpha photos and solar filter photos?

[sonic socket]

With H alpha solar telescopes they show the chromosphere part of the sun (Solar flares). For solar filters (White Light), you can only see the photosphere (Sunspots)

im not the best at explaining it but u can look up the difference online
