The Sun - 4th Mar 2015

[David Smith]

Good clear skies early this morning but accompanied but horrible seeing! Decided to hold off shooting for an hour or so and it paid off as the seeing had improved vastly. This is 53 from 187 x 1/2500th @ ISO 100. Cropped and converted in PIPP, stacked in Registax and finished in GIMP.

Just a hint of spots developing in the large area of faculae on the east limb? Maybe my imagination is getting the better of me

Forecast clear sky hasn't materialised here yet, still too many clouds but at least the wind has dropped.

Excellent!!! just cloudy and rainy here.

Nice catch!

The fog is only just starting to burn off here.

Far side watch has a possible new spot in that area to appear in the next day or so, lets hope it's ramping up.

Nice capture. Just infuriatingly small spaces between the clouds, much too small for even my quick responses to catch

[Luke]

Very nice, David. It's nice when you hope for the seeing to improve and it does

When I look at the picture, the first impression I get is that there are only tiny spots showing at present. In fact, they are continent sized!

[Pete Presland]

nice capture still not much to focus on.

A bit sparse David, but nicely caught. White light has been a bit flat lately, hopes it picks up soon.

Not flat, just challenging

Thanks
