Re: New Year Sun from Singapore
Hi Alfred...
Great set of images to kick off the new year...nice work
Nice to see that the small region to the NE of the larger region of activity continues to develop...it was just a small dark spot when Imaged the other day but it has been in many of the Ha/CaK images posted since then.
Happy New Year,
Brian
