Three White Light Sunspots – Brisbane 17th March 2013

[Dennis]

Here are 3 of the active regions visible on the Sun today as imaged from Brisbane. The seeing was quite variable so I missed out on the other 2 major regions. The "near-the-limb" shot shows how the seeing was rapidly falling off towards the end of the session.

Brilliant WL work Dennis! I particularly like the 'fading off' towards the limb on the last one. Creates a nice 3D effect.

Hi Dennis
They are super images regardless of the conditions. Looking forward to seeing more as the Sun picks up!?

Top shelf Dennis. You certainly have not lost the touch.

[Larryp]

Excellent!

Yes amazing as usual and like the limb darkening in the last image. Granulation is very hypnotising.
