Not bad for a cell shot , maybe time for a dedicated camera ...

Nice shot, especially with a cell phone. Thanks much for the share.

I good way to start might be with a ZWO ASI120MM-S monochrome cam. With the Lunt 60, it will give you a full-disk easily. You can take it up to a barlow for some closer work.

That sun shot in my current avatar was shot with a 120 on the back of a Lunt 60. (I added Santa later.)

Clear Skies & Stay Safe

Good effort with a cell phone. I recently purchased a ZWO ASI 120 cam (monochrome). I'm hoping to do my first imaging in the next week or so. Kind of tied up with end of the year projects but I want to image the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction on the 21st.

Hello messier 111. This is a great solar flare image using your cell phone in afocal mode. Thanks for sharing this work with us messier 111, and the best of regards.

it's always a little intimidating to put a picture from a cell phone.
thanks for the kind words.
I appreciate .

Hi again messier 111. You have a great solar image here and we often get nice lunar and images of Jupiter and Saturn using a cell phone held up to the eyepiece too. But wait until you get a dedicated astro camera to use at the scope. Bang! It just gets even better. Thanks messier 111, and the best wishes on your future purchase of an astro camera.

That is a pretty cool shot M111! Amazing that you used a cell phone. I tried a cell phone many moons (yes, pun intended) ago with only marginal success. You did very well!

Nice work!
