Sunspots 4446 and 4452

Through clear skies this morning we see Sunspots 4446 and 4452 still have 'beta-gamma' magnetic fields that harbor energy for M-class solar flares. There are at least 11 numbered sunspots on the solar disk at the moment.

103mm Jagers refractor, Badder Planetarium safety prism, using neutral tensity and a solar continuum filter, Losmandy GM-8 mount. Cannon 80D camera. 650 FL 12.5 mm eye piece. I am proud of this dedicated solar telescope as I made it myself around a used Jagers objective lens, bought on e-bay that had damaged coatings. A Moon Lite focuser, a Baader Planetarium Herschel Wedge. It has become my favorite telescope for sunspots!
