A sunny day (well, morning at least) which makes a nice change at this time of year. I started with the 150mm mod to try to get some close up views of the action before the seeing went 'south'. Lucky I did, within a few minutes of getting on target I could see things getting worse. Not too much of a problem for the FDs, but it cut short my session on the 150.
The active regions are looking resplendent, with a little minor flaring by the looks of things.
First up, ARs 2908 and 2909:

I decided to make a panoramic mosaic of these regions all together to capture their beauty in one shot:

Here's the Ha FD to put them into context:

....and in CaK to finish off the session. Mist started to roll in within minutes of finishing. I got lucky.
