Finally a nice and big sunspot on the visible surface of the Sun!
The AR2871 complex was first visible from SDO imagery yesterday, and I was hoping that I would be able to image it today, between a cloud and another.
Here in the North of Scotland the Sun doesn't go above +16° of elevation, and this image was taken at ~14°. Seeing was 1-3/5, but I am plenty satisfied of the final result! Looking forward to see how this almost 100000km long active region will evolve!
