Details:
I got a surprise this afternoon, instead of seeing a completely blank solar disc there on the eastern limb was a new sunspot, first of all I thought it was a spot on my camera chip, but moving the solar disc around in the frame showed it was still there!
I was pleased to see that Spaceweather.com updated their solar image to show this new sunspot, I think this one may be quite active as its growing quite fast...
Images taken with a Canon 70D camera and a Canon 100-400mm lens with a 2x converter attached. The camera has a glass solar filter attached to the lens, the exposure times were 1/400th second and ISO 400, 15 images were stacked in Registak6 and lightly processed in PS CS4.
