So great @mariosi!

Lots of detail there. 😀

The number of sunspots visible at the moment is amazing. Even my ST80 shows plenty. 

Cheers

You, have a talent I envy. Please add colour to your bridge sketch if you can.

Superb detail. What equipment are you using to view the sun and which tools for the main sketch? 

[mariosi]

Thanks for the friendly comments. 

---- What equipment are you using to view the sun and which tools for the main sketch?

I'm using f4.7 Dob 10inches, Baader Astrosolar film. Blending stump,Black pencils on white paper. HB/ 2H/ 2B - papers usually A4 printer. Scanning or photo. I put the sketch on black circle (or not) and right positioning  - PC photoshop +/- Brightness, contrast, e.t.c.

Amazing talent - love the drawings - makes me realise how little talent I have on this, but that is fine - thank you for sharing those...truly amazing and breathtaking.
