Following notification of nice sunspots via the IIS Facebook page

I whipped out he camera and telescope for the attached.

Taken using a Megrez 90 APO with 2x Celestron Ultima barlow, Canon 6D @ 800ISO & 1/500th, using Baader photographic solar film. Backyard EOS.

Good fun

That is probably the best solar shot I have seen from a DSLR.

really? wow, people mustn't try hard if I can get the best

thanks for your vote of confidence in my solar photography! I really didn't take enormous care over it, as it's a little troublesome to focus right now and I'm a bit tired.
