All best viewed in full resolution.

Nice ones!  CaK seems to be showing 2 AR's but white light only the one.

Lovely detail in those Dave. I can see three black spots in the larger AR, not something I recall seeing in CaK before?

Stu,  in Ca-k images increasingly intense magnetic fields show a's progressively brighter / lighter areas but the most intense field's still show as black / dark areas. So you will still see "spots" similar to what you see in white light. My experience is that the spot in Ca-K tends to be smaller in size than the equivalent white light spot

Thanks Dave, very interesting.
