Frustratingly my session was again a bit rushed and cut short.

Nice Shane, here's a 0.032 millisecond shot of it for comparison;

In context.

Personally, I reckon the pencil is mightier than the camera

Excellent sketch and compares well with the images.

[Alan White]

Very nice sketch Shane, thanks for sharing.

How long till we change you Astro name to SolShane?

 

[Piero]

Another excellent sketch!

I've just spent a couple of hours observing that chain of sunspots. The seeing was reasonably steady this morning over here. Granulation was also very impressive at every magnification I tried.

Oh ye of little faith.

Started good for me but now a little wishy washy haze, but I have left the Lunt outside as I expect it to clear before evening.

Managed a sketch of the new AR 

It's actually quite complex

Nice going Shane. It was good to see that think line extending along the limb, which you have caught nicely!

The cloud gods also allowed me some Ha  time ?
