  1. Didn’t think I’d get to see anything at all since it was overcast and but the clouds were thin enough at times for the h-alpha wavelength to cut through. I captured as much as I could. This is a stack of about 450 frames. I have more that I need to process and probably add on to this.

    I have a video showcasing my gear and capture process here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlLqKOOljcs

    The image was taken with this equipment:

    Equipment used:
    * Lunt 40
    * Sky-Watcher SolarQuest
    * QHY5-III 178m
    * FireCapture, PIPP, AutoStakkert!3, AstroSurface
    * Colorization in Photoshop via curves adjustments
