Su juzaphoto ci sono bellissime foto della #AuroraBorealeInItalia del 10 maggio 2024, ed ecco qui la responsabile di questo evento: la maestosa regione solare attiva AR3664! Questa foto è stata fatta la mattina del 11 maggio quando a causa della rotazione del sole la regione si trovava vicino al bordo ovest del sole. Molto affascinante il complesso di macchie solari (con relative zone di "ombra" e "penombra") che compongono la regione attiva, per darvi un'idea delle dimensioni, la macchia più isolata in alto a destra ha circa le dimensioni della Terra! Immagine ottenuta da stack e sharpening di 32 migliori foto su 240 fatte nell'arco di 30 secondi con la fotocamera al fuoco diretto di un telescopio Maksutov-Cassegrain 128/1500 e moltiplicatore di focale 2x.

Hi Giancarlo, thank you very much! In fact, I didn't get to see the aurora, but at least I consoled myself by photographing its cause! ;-)

I didn't see it either, also because if they had told me about an aurora borealis visible as far south as Sardinia, I would never have believed it, yet a friend managed to photograph it at unimaginable latitudes.
Crazy really.

Well, I live in the province of Padua and I could have seen it, but I went to bed unaware of the phenomenon and I read the messages of my amateur astronomers the next morning! :-(

Wow what a splendor Daniele! By the way, with a tele almost like mine (MC 127/1500)...
A question if I may: in addition to the Barlow 2x, what filter do you need (front or back)?

Hi Black, Bo and Pada, thank you so much for the appreciation!
Black, of course you can gladly. I used a simple astrosolar reflective filter mounted in front of the telescope. It reduces the incoming light to less than 1% of the total and allows you to take photos (and observations) in white light in complete safety. You can find these filters either in sheets to be cut out or, as in my case, already mounted in housings to be placed in front of the telescope. You can see the complete setup for this capture in this short video that I share:
