Good Day All 😎

Yesterday I finally caught all five, actually there is 6 but whos counting anyways 😄

393, 486, 518, 588 and 720nm all with my 3 element filter sets for use with a solar wedge.

Filtered with coloured glass and imaged in full colour as well edited with true colour rendering on montitors set to natural colours.

Or as close as I could indeed get to Newtons 5 Monochromatic Lights.

Hope you like them, been a journey of a year to create and test them...


And Best of luck indeed to those attending the eclipse tomorrow and to those just finally getting a clear day or night to image or observe,

Have an Awesome Week Everyone !

Excellent rainbow Aaron!

The texture in the Calcium is good.

Thanks Graeme,

I thought the apinged spot was really cool too, dont get alot of those,

Really love the colour of the calcium line, I created 3 filters all said, calcium h, k and a broadband version...

The K is the best and cheapest to build of the three, go figure its the most complicated in conception and requires an extended scavenger hunt overseas of sorts to aquire the proper colour filters.
