First Sun image for nearly a year due to there being very little to see - the spot count has only increased by 19 since my last image in may 2019 and most of those were tiny and short lived.

Not a lot of spots to observe in white light "lately" indeed. It can only get better

Re: The Sun 4 April 2020 White Light
Yes, white light has been meager lately. Most of the time nothing. My 8x32 Lunt SUNoculars have been almost useless lately. But an observation is an observation, spots or no spots.
