Poor conditions with high cloud & haze ... but the new active area appearing at the east limb is interesting, with flarelike activity and huge filaments to north & south.

2011 Apr 20, 1539 UT. William Optics FLT 110, 2x Powermate, Solarscope SF-100 Ha filter set, Imaging Source DMK41 camera - 80% resize.

That's some great detail Brian, in spite of the difficult conditions.

Excellent image, thanks for sharing.

I've only seen it this close and clear in a twenty grand, double stacked, well pimped Televue scope before. Very nice capture

Excellent stuff! These Solarscope images I'm seeing have pretty much determined what solar telescope to get next.
