Details:
Today for the first time I managed to capture the giant sunspot AR 1944, with some high level clouds that helped in filtering the solar light. The sunspot is really big, visible even to the naked eye (using the appropriate filters - Remember, ALWAYS use some filter to watch our Sun!). Here it is with some overlayed references such as Earth or Jupiter dimensions.
