The Sun has a nice active area from the new cycle (high Northern latitude). Well worth having a look at.

White light, 1116 UT, 80mm refractor at f/12


Hydrogen alpha, 1127 UT, SV60 at f/16



Calcium K, 1133 UT, PST at f/20



And here's the CaK whole disc image, at 1137 UT, to put the active area into context

Great shooting Brian!!. It's nice to see solar captures in three different wavelengths!.

I got a look at 1007 today in white light. It was quite a nice group with a long 'tail' of small spots extending from the western most spot and pointing to the other. I see this group has fired a B-class flare.
