Astropical

This site is for Astronomy Studies in the Tropics. I'm based in East Pattaya, Thailand, 12.934N, 100.918E, between the sun's northern limit and the Equator. The big advantage of this location is that you can observe both northern and some southern stars at the same time. And it's never cold... lol. I hope to introduce you to the unique celestial opportunities available from this area. Enjoy your observations!! Taro Seki Astropical.uk

The tropical sun is powerful.

I attached a filter for deep space photography to an ordinary astronomical telescope and tried to capture the chromosphere pattern on the surface of the sun.
It should be possible to shoot the solar telescope-level chromosphere.

熱帯地方の太陽は力強い。
普通の天体望遠鏡に深宇宙撮影用のフィルタをつけて太陽の表面にある彩層紋を炙り出してみた。

もう一息でSolar望遠鏡レベルの彩層紋を撮影できそうだ。
