CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!
Given the past few cloudy months...
Been digging around old subs that I haven't really had a chance to process...
Solar surface, 2013-11-07
Taken in H-alpha.
Personally, I loved the features on the middle-left of the image, as well as the almost-3D filamentary structure at the bottom!
(aside...)
Had a chance to see 1944 visually 3 times the past week (the sunspot that gave a X-class flare), but had been unfortunate not to have good enough skies to image it properly!

It is how many people, less fortunate than you, got to look through it."
