New sunspot 4366.

As seen to me just now huge new sunspot 4366.

When the weekend began, sunspot 4366 didn't exist. Now it is a behemoth almost 10 times wider than Earth. The sunspot's rapid growth is making it unstable and susceptible to flares. Indeed, it has already unleashed a triple-peaked M7-X1-M6 flare. (Spaceweather.com)

103mm Jagers refractor, Badder Planetarium safety prism, using neutral tensity and a solar continuum filter, Losmandy GM-8 mount. Cannon 60Da camera. 650 FL 12.5 mm eyepiece.
