Re: Sun in Whitelight 15th August 2022
That's an interesting looking lower and complex seeming spot.
Meanwhile the cloud thickens and the rain comes and goes; latest forecast gives little change for 24 hours.
Just as I've managed to re-jig the scope hide for the new toy. Mind it was probably the box from FLO
that brought the cloud, even if I haven't opened it yet!
Memo to self, build a larger box next time to cope with any future expansion of telescope

Doesn't mean I know what I'm doing, though!

Your white light images are so reliable! Thanks Steve. That cluster of spots in the south was producing flare activity this morning.
