Todays Sunspots!

[ballaratdragons (Ken)]

The sun kept popping out between the clouds so I quickly grabbed some Sunspot images.

1. ED80, Toucam, Identiview Solar Filter, 2000 frames stacked.
2. Same gear but with a 2x Barlow.

Yep, that is what they looked like to my eyes too!

Terrific pic Ken. I also had a look at these sunspots and tried a few handheld but compared to these, well, ho hum. (My one attached)

Great to see Harry too. Its good to be able to put a face to a name and he looks like he is having a great time.

Your Large spot looks clearer than mine

Yeah, Harry is 'Little Dragon' in here. Him and his brother Jake follow me around like flies when I'm doing Astro stuff! Grand ain't it

Top stuff Ken!

I haven't had a chance to look today. I've been driving to Sydney and back, so I appreciate the pics!

Al.

Glad to help, Al.

It's a great looking string of spots.

And a bit of fun in PaintShop, I added my own Prominance from a blowtorch
