Sun on August 17: H-alpha and CaIIH and K line

Using my new Sol'Ex by James R. I'm making progress to get the images sharper and sharper. But it's not yet 100% sharp, mainly in one area. So more works to do. Turing the collimator wheel about 10times "in" starting from H-alpha settings, I got a really sharp CaII H ad K-line sundisk.
