Seeing was average today. Struggling in between the clouds.
Sun seems to become really active. With AR 11092 just dissapearing over the Western limb and a new one already emerging on the Eastern limb taking it’s place.

So we got 4 active regions for today as well.

Sunspots AR 11093, AR 11095 and AR 11096:

and a new active area on the North Eastern limb:

The large sunspot AR 11092 is slowly moving away on the western limb of the sun. While sunspot AR 11093 is moving more towards the center facing the earth.
South of sunspot AR 11093, is the small sunspot AR 11095.

and sunspot AR 11092 slowly moving away on the western limb:

Back from holiday! And the sun is bursting of activity this week!

The large sunspot AR 11092 is facing the earth and has produced a large CME earlier this week, from wich a first wave hitted the earth’s magnetic field yesterday afternoon and another wave about to hit either today or tomorrow.

From the sun’s eastern limb 2 new active areas are emerging.

Region AR 11087 seems to be slowly decaying now. But still gives a magnificent sight!

Seeing was actually quite good today. Not too unstable.

Tried a little experiment today, by adding the Moon filter I got and stack it together with my usual 2 filters I use with Solar imaging.
This allowed me to boost the gain significantly and the end result isn’t lying! I am quite pleased.

Region AR 11087 has moved a bit further to the west on the North Eastern limb.
The new sunspot AR 11088 is still nothing more than a single small spot and not really worthwhile imaging (yet).

Seeing was moderate.

The new region of high magnetic activity that appeared yesterday on the North-Eastern limb is now designated as AR 11087.
It has become more active now and gives some exiting views in white light.

Seeing was very unstable.

Both AR 11084 and AR 11086 are no longer visible.
But a region of high magnetic activity has appeared on the North-Eastern limb. Wich are the remains of AR 11082.

Seeing was very unstable.

The new sunspot group on the north-western limb (AR 11086) is still there.
Sunspot AR 11084 is still visible at the south-western limb.

Seeing was very unstable.

Posting in a new, better format as of today! (will slowly work my way back and convert some of my older captures to this new format as well)

A new sunspot group popped up today on the north-western limb (AR 11086).
Sunspot AR 11084 is still visible at the south-western limb.

Seeing was very unstable. So it was a pain to focus (as usual) and capture those precious sharp frames.
