Details:
The clouds parted just long enough later this afternoon for me to take some images of the new sunspot group AR2629. The other sunspot area AR2628 has a shape that looks quite interesting…it reminds me of a little tadpole with that wispy tail coming away from its dark centre :-)
The first image is orientated with the western side of the Sun to the bottom which shows AR2628 and the eastern side to the top right which shows AR2629; the second full disc image is in the correct orientation.
Both images were taken with my APO 127mm refractor telescope with a glass solar filter attached and using a Canon 700D camera, the first image had a 2x Barlow attached and the second image showing the full solar disc was at prime focus.
