[Aussie_Dave]

Solar Sunspot AR2887 captured today 28th October 2021. Seeing conditions average from the Mandurah area Western Australia.

A large solar flare measuring X1.0 was just observed around AR 2887 just a while ago so some of us way down south may be in for a nice aurora, perhaps, fingers crossed

Captured in SharpCap, Stacked in AutoStakkert 3, wavelets in RegiStax 6, edited in PaintDotNet. Resized about 50% larger.

Thanks everyone. I did over cook it a bit, as I do but I'm fine with that. It's had 3 different types of sharpening.
I'm hoping to get out there Saturday, forecast says sunny
