[AZ-Observing] Sun in H-Alpha

At the end of my talk on the Sun at SAC earlier this month, I showed a 
couple images of the Sun taken by a gentleman in France Named Phil Rouselle. 
  He uses a hand built spectrohelioscope-a device that allows a view of the 
Sun in selected wavelengths.  H-Alpha, Calcium J and K band as well as 
Sodium and others.  He's been on vacation for a while, but returned today to 
take the image in H-Alpha I've linked here.

It's simply amazing the detail that can be seen in such images.  Surfing 
around his site you can find many other images in various bands with similar 
stunning results.  Happy surfing!
