Details:
Never seen a filament this dark before, almost like a brown rice grain on the center of the disk. Did check eyepiece for dust! Lunt 60, B1200 Ha diagonal, iPhone 6s. First shot shows AR 2859 almost central, and AR 2860 below it to SE (lower left). Second shot shows the dark filament is NOT the tiny sunspot to the lower right of it, and lot of faculae between. In last shot, note that AR 2860 remains a neat double spot, but activity developing more.
