Default ASTRO: Sunspot 953

70mm refractor and a Nikon CP4500 @ 100ASA for 1/250sec. The fog lifted and
the skies were rock steady...a rare time when everything came together.
This thing looked like the state of Alaska for a while with the island chain
and all.

Great hi-rez image Joe! I wanted to see this spot at the NEAF 'solar star
pary', but alas, it was cloudy whenever I had a chance to look.
