Nice work Charl. Overcast over here today, and a little windy too. If I get any chance later on with the sun putting on a show at all I may have a quick look again.

Nice images Charl. I am glad you are getting some decent sky. Total cloud here, but can't complain after 4 really good days.

[David Smith]

Good disk and some nice close-ups. Forecast shows clear here later so I have my fingers crossed.

Looking good Charl, Sun shining and less high cloud today, seeing not too bad here but the wind is a bit frisky.

I'm lucky to be at home today so must make the most of it.

thanks Paul, deff worth a look mate, it looks better in the vis, the faculae is well visable.clear skys charl.

[paulastro]

Excellent shots Charl, I particularly like the close-up of AR2542.  I wonder if there's any chance of it coming back again for a third circuit? 

[xtreemchaos]

thanks Paul-A, there not proper close ups,just crops, the 4x barlow wasnt having it with the thermals, it made the spots looklike rashes. yer never know mate we might get lucky and see it again, id like to see the monster again,by the looks of the faculae theres something cooking round the limb. clear skys  charl.

[Pete Presland]

Nice sharp discs, totally clouded out here despite the forecast for a 3-4 hour gap.

[Stu]

Very nice Charl, your images have certainly got sharper recently, is that now you have found a way of being outside? Makes a big difference, lovely detail and I like the faculae showing through.

[xtreemchaos]

thanks pete, hope you get some clear skys mate charl.

[xtreemchaos]

thanks Stu, na these was taken from inside, it all depens on the thermals rising up the side of the house with my obsy window facing south, the meds the doc gives me stops me making vit D,i can only take them once every six months cos there dangerous if taken too often. im hoping to get some kind obsy built in the near future so i can view remotely. 100% cloud here today,hope you have clear skys charl.
