2nd Dec 0.30 UT. Fairly good conditions today and it was time to look at the sunspots. Mostly small spots but there is some activity on the eastern limb where some old groups are returning (AR 3153 and an unnumbered group at the NE corner (probably AR 3156) look interesting. This single exposure image was taken with a Canon 550d camera, WO refractor, herschel wedge at 540 nm. Thanks for viewing.
Note: There was a C3.7 flare from AR3153 today at 2.07 UT.

Great image John. Fantastic to have more than a couple of minutes cloud free to enjoy the sun today. AR3153 is fairly jam packed with sun spots so could be some interesting times ahead.
