Sun 27th September + video

Single frame from a Canon EOS 550D with a 12" Sky-Watcher Goto Dobsonian, using a full aperture mylar filter. Passing clouds finally put an end to the session, so I couldn't get a good close up of the major sunspot group.

Here is a full HD video of the view: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1gnhapjvL0

Thanks for looking,

Tom

Nice work. That's an interesting looking group of spots... I wish I had the opportunity to capture them.

Nice work Tom. This Group is producing a lot of flaring and is now pointed towards us.
