23rd Dec. Many sunspots...

Post by JohnW »

23rd Dec SE Australia... There are many sunspot groups on the Sun at the moment.
This image is a single exposure with a Canon 550d camera attached to a WO 81 mm refractor with Herschel wedge and 540 nm filter. The spots are numbered. Also some faculae. There was a M1.3 flare around AR2908 0n Dec 22nd. Thanks for viewing. Regards to all for Xmas.
