Removing the reducer and dropped in a 3x barlows, 1320 and 1329 (UT+1):

I believe 2x should be better, 1337 and 1340 (UT+1), I love the filament the most:

Enjoy the sunshine!

My 8" white light filter arrived, but the collimation seems no good, all images failed badly. 

1036 (UT+1):

Switch back to my H-alpha setup:

The Sun is very active today.

taken with 2x Barlows, 1117 (UT+1):

1120 and 1123 (UT+1) with 2x barlows:

Really need to fine tune the collimation of the 8" SCT, I did try before but it seems not going well.
