Sunspots ar779 and 780

Took some more solar pics on the weekend, unfortunately the seeing continues to be horrible while this jetstream is overhead.

The first one is 779 again, and i've overlayed the same sunspot group taken 2 days earlier - interesting to see how it's changed shape in the course of 2 days. Obviously the seeing (or my focus?) was better on the 16th too.

The second one is 780, which has just arrived, rotating around the eastern limb. Will be interesting to watch that one over the next few days and see how big it grows - could be a chance for some flares directed at earth.

Here they are:
