There was some beautiful activity from 3272 as it emerged from the limb.

Re: 06-04-2023 H-Alpha drawing
Thank you. It looked like an active "spray" like prom - rapidly changing. Here is a (noisy) snapshot through the eyepiece. Which don't really do it any justice.
beautiful color sketch on black cardboard you made, saw it
on Flickr! I like to try that. It looks fantastic.
I really find peace in visual observation and drawing. Some things are priceless in a busy everyday life

That's a lovely snapshot of the surge I quite a agree about the peace in visual and drawing sometime imaging leaves me frustrated and I far rather enjoy the sun with a quiet sketch even if I am not that talented

While they won’t put a dedicated astro-cam out of business, smartphone cameras are a nice always quick option to image the sun. Few exploit them to their maximum capability. Nice pic!
